The Gram and ZN Stain Profile is a test used to identify bacteria in a sample of a patients body fluid, tissue, or other sample. It is performed by first taking a sample of the fluid or tissue and placing it on a glass slide. The sample is then treated with two dyes, a Gram stain and a Ziehl-Neelsen (ZN) stain. The Gram stain is used to identify bacteria that have a cell wall, while the ZN stain is used to identify bacteria that do not have a cell wall. After staining, the sample is viewed under a microscope and the presence or absence of bacteria is assessed. If bacteria are present, they will be identified based on their shape, size, and other characteristics. The Gram and ZN Stain Profile is a useful tool in the diagnosis and treatment of bacterial infections.
