a. The bacteria were subjected to too much alcohol during the decolorization process, causing the organism to absorb the pink-to-red dye. b. The bacteria with an outer membrane and periplasmic space should not be Gram stained because of their cell wall content. c. Something is wrong with the lot of stains and may be expired. The Gram stain rea-gents are most likely expired. d.
