Gram Stain Test - Book at Affordable Cost

A Gram stain is a test that examines for bacteria in places like the throat, lungs, genitals, or skin wounds where an infection is suspected. For example, blood or urine can be tested with Gram stains for bacteria.

Why done? 

To detect and classify bacteria or occasionally fungus (microbes) in a sample taken from the suspected infection site; to classify bacteria cultivated in culture to perform additional identification tests and administer appropriate treatment.

Procedure

Gram stains can be applied to a variety of samples. Sterile swabs are sometimes used to extract cells or exudate from the probable infection location. Clean containers can collect other samples, such as urine or sputum. A needle and syringe may be used to collect some bodily fluids. Bacteria can be isolated and grown in culture using a swab.

How does one prepare for the test? 

A Gram stain does not necessitate any extra preparations.
