- STERILIZATION OF A LOOPSTERILIZATION OF A LOOP BY FLAMING
Figure 1. Flaming of loop. Place the loop in flame starting at the
loop and move it through the flame so that the wire becomes red-hot
along 4 to 6 cm of its length. Allow the wire to cool for about 10
seconds. Pick up the sample with the cooled loop and distribute it.
Repeat the flaming/cooling procedure before laying the loop down on
the desk. Always flame the loop immediately prior to using it for
any purpose. PROCEDURE: STEP 1 AND 2

- PREPARATION OF A BACTERIAL SMEAR Figure 2. Preparation of a
microbial smear for STAINING. For a dry sample, use your
sterile/cool loop to first put a small drop of water or sterile
medium on the slide. Then pick up a tiny bit of the microbe sample
from the source (colony, wound) with a sterile/cool loop and mix it
into the liquid on the slide, being careful to not put too much or
too little sample on the slide. Spread the sample-drop for drying
and fixing as illustrated above and as demonstrated by your
instructor. STEP 1 AND 2

- STAINING Figure 3. Adding stain to the fixed bacterial smear.
After the bacterial smear has been heat-fixed to the slide, lay it
over the sink on the slide-support. Carefully drop the appropriate
staining solution onto the smear so as to cover it entirely. Allow
it to sit for 30 to 60 seconds. Then tip the slide so the excess
stain drops into the sink. Then gently run tap-water or a spray of
deionized water over the smear, washing off any remaining stain.
Finally, dry the smear either in the air or by gently patting it
with absorbent paper. Examine under the microscope, first using the
10X to locate areas of stained material, then place a drop of oil
on the dried, stained sample and rotate the oil- immersion lens
into the oil drop. STEPs 5-6
