mistermack Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Damn it, I got that the wrong way around, sorry. The purple colour is gram positive. So this looks gram positive, not negative. The prominent rod shapes are definitely purple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistermack Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 The wikipedia page for Bacillus Subtilis is actually very misleading. But down the page, it does show a gram stained picture, with the purple colour similar to your pictures. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacillus_subtilis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
