- Extra Details:
- Wright's stain is a composite dye composed of the acidic dye Eosin and the basic dye Methylene Blue; which provides excellent differentiation of protoplasm. Giemsa stain is a mixture of Azure II and Eosin. Its staining principle and results are essentially the same as Wright's method. Giemsa stain has a strong affinity for cytoplasm and effectively demonstrates basophilic characteristics; especially in blood and bone marrow cells. It clearly stains azurophilic; eosinophilic; and basophilic granules. However; it tends to overstain nuclei and poorly reveals nuclear structure. Therefore; Giemsa stain is often used in combination with Wright's stain. EnkiLife Wright-Giemsa Stain is prepared by grinding and mixing imported Wright's and Giemsa dyes. It produces clear and distinct cellular staining and is commonly used for blood smears; bone marrow smears; and bacterial staining. Cytoplasm appears red; nuclei and bacteria appear blue; and eosinophilic granules appear orange-red. Neutral glycerol is added to the stain to prevent methanol evaporation or oxidation and to enhance the clarity of blood cell staining. This stain consists of a Wright-Giemsa composite staining solution and a phosphate buffer; which can be used either by mixing in equal parts or by treating the specimen sequentially.
