Add liquid A to the glass slide in the air, and rinse it gently with distilled water after 4min~6min. Then add liquid B and slowly heat until steam appears, and maintain for about half a minute (be careful not to let the dry surface appear when heating). The part with many bacteria may be dark brown to black. Stop heating, rinse with water, and examine under a microscope after drying. The bacteria and flagella are dark brown to black. 2.8 Alkaline fuchsin staining method
Dissolve 0.5g of alkaline fuchsin dye in 20mL95% ethanol, and then dilute to 100mL with distilled water.

3.16.2 Preparation method
1000mL
Prepare the ingredients except potassium cyanide and dispense them into flasks. Autoclave at 121℃ for 15 min. Place in a refrigerator to cool down fully. Add 2.0mL of 0.5% potassium cyanide solution to every 100mL of culture medium (final concentration is 1:10000), and dispense into 12mm×100mm sterile test tubes, about 4mL per tube. Immediately plug with sterile rubber stopper and place in a 4℃ refrigerator. It can be stored for at least two months. At the same time, use the culture medium without potassium cyanide as the control culture medium and dispense into test tubes for standby use. 3.16.3 Test method
Inoculate agar culture into protein stale water to form diluted bacterial solution, pick 1 loop and inoculate into potassium cyanide (KCN) culture medium. Pick another loop and inoculate into control culture medium. Culture at 36℃±1℃ for 1d~2d and observe the results. If there is bacterial growth, it is positive (no inhibition), and if there is no bacterial growth after 2d, it is negative (inhibition). Note: Potassium cyanide is a highly toxic drug. Be careful when using it and do not infect it alive to avoid poisoning. In summer, dispensing of culture medium should be done in a refrigerator. The main reason for the failure of the test is that the seal is not tight, potassium cyanide gradually decomposes, and hydrorhinic acid gas escapes, resulting in a decrease in drug concentration and bacterial growth, thus causing a false positive reaction. Special attention should be paid to every link during the test. 3.17 Nitrate culture medium

After inoculation, culture at 36℃±1℃ for 1d~4d, add one drop of solution A and one drop of solution B, and observe the results. When nitrate is reduced to nitrite, it will turn red immediately or within a few minutes.
Note: There are three reasons for the negative result of this test: bacteria cannot reduce nitrate; nitrite continues to decompose to produce ammonia and nitrogen; the culture medium is not suitable for the growth of bacteria. If you want to check whether the nitrate in the culture medium has not been decomposed, you can add a little zinc powder to reduce nitrate to nitrite and turn red. 3.18 Oxidase test
