Difference between Acid-fastness and Infection

Acid-fastness vs. Infection

Acid-fastness is a physical property of certain bacterial and eukaryotic cells, as well as some sub-cellular structures, specifically their resistance to decolorization by acids during laboratory staining procedures. Infection is the invasion of an organism's body tissues by disease-causing agents, their multiplication, and the reaction of host tissues to the infectious agents and the toxins they produce.

Similarities between Acid-fastness and Infection

Acid-fastness and Infection have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Bacteria, Eukaryote, Gram stain, Mycobacterium, Nocardia, Staining.

Bacteria
