The decolorizer dissolves the lipids in the cell walls of Gram Negative organisms causing the crystal violet-iodine complex to rinse out . Gram Positive organisms resist this and holds onto the crystal violet-iodine complex . Consist of a 75/25 composition of alcohol to acetone in 4x16 oz replacement bottles . FDA approved for in vitro diagnostic use .
