Bacteriologists have long used anilin dyes of various colors to " stain " different species of bacteria. The tubercle bacillus does not stain easily, but when it does, it clings tenaciously to the dye, in spite of immersion in alcohol and strong acids, and for this reason is called " acid-fast." Non-acid-fast bacteria (such as the typhoid bacillus) yield readily to the " antibodies" produced by the injection of dead bacteria of the same disease.
