| Purpose |
It is usually used for staining blood cells. |
| Working Principle
|
Giemsa stain is a differential stain and contains a mixture of azure, methylene blue and eosin stain. It is specific for the phosphate groups of DNA and binds itself where there is a high amount of adenine-thymine bonding. Azur and eosin are acidic dyes that variably stain the basic components of cells such as cytoplasm, granules, etc. Methylene blue, on the other hand, acts as a basic stain for acidic components, especially the cell nucleus. |
