Negative staining uses a dye that does not penetrate the specimen. It colors the background, allowing for better visualization of the specimen's outline and features around it like capsular material. Gram - staining is for determining Gram - reaction, flagella staining for flagella arrangement, endospore staining for endospores, and there are other methods for determining cell size.
