Rickettsiae and chlamydiae are considered to be small bacteria since they are prokaryotic cells possessing DNA and RNA and they reproduce by the process of binary fission. They differ from all other bacteria by being obligate intracellular parasites. Since they are gram negative, gram stain does not differentiate them from the cellular material with which they are usually associated. The Macchiavello stain is considered to be one of the best differential stains available. The mechanism of this staining procedure is based on the affinity of cationic (basic) dyes for rickettsial and chlamydial organisms. This is emphasized in the decolorization step where cellular material is decolorized faster than the microorganisms.
