Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers a Gram Stain test in Kadi to distinguish between Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in a sample.
Overview of Gram Stain Test
Gram Staining is a laboratory test used to detect bacterial species. It is based on the ability of bacteria to retain crystal violet dye when treated with a decolorizing agent such as alcohol. Gram-positive bacteria will retain the crystal violet dye in their thick peptidoglycan layers and appear purple, while Gram-negative bacteria, which do not have a thick peptidoglycan layer will lose the dye and appear red or pink.
