STAIN, NEGATIVE (INDIA INK)
This test involves the use of India ink to highlight structures like capsules, which are typically seen in certain microorganisms such as *Cryptococcus* species. The ink stains the background while leaving the capsule unstained, allowing for the visualization of the capsule as a clear, transparent area against the dark ink. This method is primarily used for identifying encapsulated organisms in microbiology.
