INTRODUCTION
Bacterial cells are usually colorless because cytoplasm, for the most part, is transparent.
Staining the organisms makes them contrast in color with their surroundings, so they are more readily visible. Certain stains can also be used to identify internal structures of the cell, which would otherwise be unseen. Further, in order to use the oil immersion objective of the microscope and thereby obtain the greatest degree of magnification, it is convenient to use stained preparations rather than wet mounts.1
Although bacteria do not appear greatly different from their
