Gram Stain Kit Advanced™, with stabilized iodine, produces brighter colors for both Gram positives and negatives

Used to stain microorganisms from cultures or specimens by the differential Gram method. Produces Gram stains with brighter more distinct colors.

Create vivid Gram positives:
Gram positive organisms retain their
deep blue stain; even those that are easily
decolorized, such as Bacillus spp. You don’t
need to worry about over decolorizing

Brighten Gram negatives:
Gram negative organisms will appear
brighter with better definition at the
edges. The stained cells are less likely to
be over-washed. Anaerobes, especially
Fusobacterium spp. will be a darker red
than with conventional stains. You will also
notice a marked improvement with other
Gram negatives, such as Neisseria spp.

Differentiate mixed cultures:
When mixed on a slide, Gram
positives and negatives will be easier
to distinguish, due to an overall
brighter stain.

Save time:
No mixing or breaking of ampules is
required. All stains are ready-to-use
and have a two year shelf life from
date of manufacture.
