Product Short Description:
IODINE GRAMS STAINING SOLUTION
Product Description:
The cell walls for gram-negative microorganisms have a higher lipid content than gram-positive cells. Originally, both kinds of cells are penetrated by the crystal violet. Iodine is subsequently added as a mordant to form the crystal violet-iodine complex so that the dye cannot be removed too easily.
