I do a gram stain but also not very often. I have used a PolyScientific kit and it has a pretty good shelf life but before that I was just making up the stains and solutions in small quantities. They aren't hard to make and I inherited a wealth of stains and chemicals here that it seems a shame

Stacy, You can buy a complete Brown and Brenn staining kit from Newcomer Supply which is very good, and not change your method. The picric acid/acetone mixture is included and you wouldn't have to store stock picric acid nor ether in the lab but just this small amount of Picric acid/acetone

I always used actual tissues with gram +/- bacteria because it is not the same (time wise) to stain a histogel than a piece of tissue. Appendix is a good control. René J. --- On Tue, 11/25/08, Fischer, R. B [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: Fischer, R. B [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Histonet] gram
