• It is advisable to carry out the staining from young cultures (24-36 h).

SIMPLE COLORING WITH BASIC PHENIC FUCSIN

Method:

• Take a clean and degreased slide. (see codes D100001, D100002, etc.)

• Let dry, and fix the extension by passing the slide over the flame of a bunsen burner. Avoid overheating.
• Place the slide on a staining rack (see codes S001, S002, S003)
• Stain the smear by flooding the slide with carbol fuchsin for 2 minutes.
• Wash with water with the help of a washing bottle (eg codes 443000 or 191638), until the washing liquid has no red-pink color.
