Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- The capsule stain is considered a negative stainWhich of the following are true about a differential stain. There may be more than one answer! No chemicals are needed. More than one stain is used The acid fast stain is an example The Gram stain is an example.What is the purpose of fixing a smear? Mark all that apply: 1. To attach the bacteria to the slide 2. To cause the cells to shrink and become distorted 3. To kill the bacteria so they aren't harmed by the staining method 4. To break down the cell wall in order to make the cells accept stain 5. To kill the bacteria to make the slide safer to handle
- What is the purpose of fixing a smear? Mark all that apply: To kill the bacteria so they aren't harmed by the staining method O To kill the bacteria to make the slide safer to handle O To attach the bacteria to the slide To break down the cell wall in order to make the cells accept stain To cause the cells to shrink and become distorted Microsoft Bing 11:30 AM do 87 F Sunny 9/14/2021Why is it important to limit the quantity of cells used to prepare a smear? Mark all that apply: O So that cells are not clumped and don't entrap stain creating erroneus results So that no contaminants are introduced onto the slide by being entrapped in clumps OSo that the cells are spread out enough that cell morphology can be discerned OSo that the cells are spread out enough that the arrangement can be observed O So that there are small groups of cells clumped together to make them visible Microsoft Bing 11:31 AM 87°F Sunny 9/14/2021The counterstain in the Gram stain is: A basic dye A negative stain A mordant An acid dye Necessary to determine the Gram reaction.
- Which one of these techniques does not distinguish between live and dead cells? Group of answer choices Coulter count fluorescence staining spread plateplease label this in the correct order for gram staining. crystal violet, iodine, alcohol, and safraninWhich statement is INCORRECT? Select one: Progressive H&E staining is quicker Regressive staining includes a differentiation step In regressive staining, sections are first overstained Acid alcohol is used in progressive staining.
- Which stain can be used to determine if bacteria are capsulated? Question options: flagella stain negative stain simple stain capsule stainWhat are the circles called in the staining darkWhat is the purpose of a bacterial smear? What is the purpose of a bacterial smear? It spreads the bacteria out into a single layer. It kills the bacteria. It helps the bacteria stick to the slide so they do not wash off during staining. All of the above. None of the above.
