(Q). If you forget to heat fix the specimen in simple staining, how will it impact the appearance of the specimen?
Ans : Before simple or any type of staining, smear of specimen
must be made on a slide and heat fixation occured. During heat
fixing, it helps to adherence of specimen's cells to the
slide.
We mainly use simple staining for bacterial staining. Heat fix
denatures bacterial enzymes that prevent them from digesting cell
parts.
During the staining, we wash the side (that contains bacteria)
several times with water and 70% alcohol or acetone and kept the
slide for air dry. If we do not heat fix the specimen, we will wash
off the specimen. So, we will not able to see any type of specimen
or a little amount of specimen under the microscope.

You need to prepare a paraformaldehyde (PFA) solution in order to fix cells for staining. You begin with a 32% paraformaldehyde solution. The protocol asks for a 4% paraformaldehyde fixation. If you want to make 15mL of 4% paraformaldehyde how much 32% paraformaldehyde needs to be added to what volume of PBS

1. There are other staining procedures beyond simple staining and differential staining. Examples include endospore, acid-fast, capsule, and flagella stains. Please pick one staining technique to research and answer the following questions: • What is the theory behind the staining technique, what stains are used, how are they applied, what portion of the bacteria are they reacting with • How is this stain used to differentiate or identify bacterial cells or cell structures? • Describe the staining technique. List and...
