Carbolfuchsin used in the original acid fast stain consisted of 0.3 g basic Fuchs in 10 ml 95% ethanol 5ml phenol and 95 ml wate

r . The recipe for the kingpin modification is 4 g basic fuchsin in 20 ml ethanol 8g phenol and 100 ml water . The original acid fast stain require heating the smear to force the carbolfuchsin into the wall. Why can heat be eliminated in the kingpin modification that you used ?

Answer:

The reason is that, the mycobacterium wax-like lipid such as Nocardia is not susceptible to staining or decolorization, hence, the heat allowed penetration of the stain. Also, the kinyoun modification does not require heat because a more concentrated fuchsin is used

Explanation:

The Kinyoun method or stain, otherwise known as cold method, is a procedure used to stain acid-fast species of the bacterial genera Mycobacterium and Nocardia and the apicomplexan genus Cryptosporidium.

Developed by Joseph Kinyoun, researched that, given particular species of bacteria that have a waxy lipid called mycolic acid, in their cell walls, this allow them to be stained with Acid-Fast better than a Gram-Stain.

This is due to the fact that mycobacteria, has the special ability to resist staining or decolorization byacid-alcohol, hence, it was termed acid-fast.

The procedure involves the application of a primary stain (basic fuchsin), a decolorizer (acid-alcohol), and a counterstain

Therefore, in this case, the reason the heat can be eliminated in the kingpin modification is that, the mycobacterium wax-like lipid such as Nocardia is not susceptible to staining or decolorization, hence, the heat allowed penetration of the stain. Also, the kinyoun modification does not require heat because a more concentrated fuchsin is used.

What are the products of the light reactions of photosynthesis that are utilized in the calvin cycle?
suter [353]

Answer:

The correct answer is ATP and NADPH

Explanation:

During the light reaction, the light energy is absorbed by the chlorophyll pigment present in the thylakoid membrane which moves through different electron acceptors and allows the formation of NADPH and ATP.

This ATP and NADPH get utilized into the Calvin cycle during carbon fixation, reduction and regeneration steps. This utilization converts ATP and NADPH into ADP and NADP+. The energy released by them is used to fix carbon to produce organic compounds. Therefore the correct answer is ATP and NADPH.
