Why does my airsoft gun not shoot 20 gram but it shoots 12 gram?
Yes, it is, they are both 6mm. The .20 gram bbs are for use in higher quilty guns, likve over $100. They are more acurate, but dont shoot as fast.
Do acid-fast bacteria stain gram-negative when subjected to the gram stain?
No, acid-fast bacteria do not stain gram-negative when subjected to the gram stain.
Is acid fast bacteria gram positive or negative?
Acid-fast bacteria are gram-positive.
Do higher gram airsoft bbs hurt more?
It varies. For example: If a gun shoots 400 fps with .20 gram ammo, it will probably shoot between 380-390 with .25 gram ammo. This difference in velocity doesn't make much of a noticeable difference, so the BB's will probably hurt about the same. The distance you're shooting from also makes a big difference.
What gram reaction do you expect from acid-fast bacteria?
Gram positive
Would an acid fast organism be gram positive or gram negative?
Acid fast organism would be gram positive.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The above answer is incorrect. Acid-fast bacteria would be "gram negative."Bacteria such as these have very different cell walls which contain a great deal of waxy material, although they still contain peptidoglycan. This waxy material prevents stain penetration, rendering the cell invisible.Since these acid-fast bacteria are not stained by Gram's Stain Method they have been characterized as "gram negative."----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Heres what the text book says. This is a tricky question based on opinion."Their cell walls are unique among the gram-positive bacteria because they consist of other layers in addition to peptidoglycan. An important component of their walls is a group of fatty acids called mycolic acids. Some have proposed that the mycolic acids form a bilayer structure that is analogous to the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria."So answer one is technically correct but they characteristics as those of gram negative cells (answer 2).Page 58Prescott's MicrobiologyEdition: 8thAuthor(s):Willey; Sherwood; WoolvertonISBN13:9780073375267ISBN10:0073375268Format:HardcoverPub.

Is mycobacterium phlei gram positive or negative?
Although mycoplasma lack a cell wall and therefore test gram negative, they are considered to be descendents of 'nonsporulating and endospore forming gram-positive bacteria' (Madigan et al., 2009), such as Lactobacilli, Bacilli and Streptococci, (Dandekar et al., 2002), which have lost their cell wall. Mycoplasmas are therfore classed as gram- positive bacteria. This is supported by ribosomal RNA and DNA analysis.
Is klebsiella pneumoniae acid fast?
gram positive
Which color is common to both the gram stain and the acid-fast stain?
The color common to both the gram stain and the acid-fast stain is red/pink. In the gram stain, Gram-negative bacteria appear red or pink after staining with safranin, while in the acid-fast stain, acid-fast bacteria such as Mycobacterium species retain the red/pink color of carbol fuchsin despite decolorization with acid-alcohol.
Why isn't the Gram stain used on acid-fast bacteria?
The Gram stain is not effective on acid-fast bacteria because their cell walls have a waxy layer that prevents the stain from penetrating.
What would you use to mesure a banana a gram or kilagram?
a gram
Is a Gram stain an adequate substitute for an acid fast stain?
So few organisms are acid-fast, the acid fast stain is used only when infection by an acid-fast organisms is suspected.
