Excerpt from The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1911, Vol. 9

L. Pelet-jolivet2 and others have shown that most staining re actions are colloidal phenomena. That the staining of the capsules Of pneumococci is of this nature is indicated by the fact that the smears from cultures need to be made in an albuminous (colloidal) fluid such as serum or egg-white and that treatment in the colloidal solution of carbol or anilin-gentian-violet or methyl violet is essen tial to render the capsule stainable.

The following table illustrates the importance of the colloidal solution of carbol-gentian-violet and acids in rendering the capsule stainable.
