Gram staining: to differentiate Gram-positive from Gram-negative bacteria

Gram-Nicolle staining

Gram-Nicolle staining
Use
  • Number of Tests possible: 230 - 300 slides.
  • Length of one Test: 3 minutes.

Principle
Gram-Nicolle staining is a differential staining based on the structure of the bacteria wall which is different whether it concerns Gram-positive bacteria or Gram-negative bacteria.

Kit components
  • Carbolic Gentian Violet: 240 ml.
  • Lugol, PVP-stabilized solution: 240 ml.
  • Fast Differentiator (Alcohol/Acetone): 240 ml.
  • Ziehl Carbolic Fuchsin 1/10: 240 ml.

Gram-Hücker staining

Gram-Hücker staining
Use
  • Number of Tests possible: 230 - 300 lames.
  • Length of one Test: 3 minutes.

Choosing between "R" or "L"
The "R" (fast action) kit is ideal for staining with automates and for manual and simultaneous staining of slides (series).
The "L" (slow action) kit is advised for individual staining of slides.

Principle
Gram-Hücker staining is based on the same principle as the Gram-Nicolle staining. The structure of the bacterial walls and their permeability to alcohol help differentiate the Gram-negative bacteria from the Gram-positive ones. In this technique, Carbolic Gentian Violet is replaced by Crystal Violet Oxalate (that does not require filtration) and Ziehl-Carbolic Fuchsin by Safranin.
