Abstract: The difference of cell wall properties between Gram positive and negative bacteria is found to be inaccurately summarized in some Cell Biology textbooks. This will lead to much confusion for students when they study the course. In the present paper， we provided new evidences to distinguish the properties of cell wall between Gram positive and negative bacteria， and a more accurate explanation for those was proposed.
