Simple staining vs. differential staining | |||
'''Simple staining vs. differential staining''' | |||
A simple stain will generally make all of the organisms in a sample appear to be the same colour, even if the sample contains more than one type of organism. In contrast, differential staining distinguishes organisms based on their interactions with multiple stains. In other words, two organisms in a differentially stained sample may appear to be different colours. | A simple stain will generally make all of the organisms in a sample appear to be the same colour, even if the sample contains more than one type of organism.
