Green is the more dominant, but there are hints of red about. 1
tonit Posted November 23, 2019 Author Posted November 23, 2019 thank you, @mistermack gram-negative so it should be proteus vulgaris (if not pls correct me)

mistermack Posted November 23, 2019 Posted November 23, 2019 Damn it, I got that the wrong way around, sorry. The purple colour is gram positive. So this looks gram positive, not negative. The prominent rod shapes are definitely purple.
mistermack Posted November 24, 2019 Posted November 24, 2019 The wikipedia page for Bacillus Subtilis is actually very misleading. But down the page, it does show a gram stained picture, with the purple colour similar to your pictures. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacillus_subtilis
