  2. H&E stain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H&E_stain

    The H&E staining procedure is the principal stain in histology [3] [7] [2] [5] in part because it can be done quickly, [7] is not expensive, and stains tissues in such a way that a considerable amount of microscopic anatomy [9] [10] is revealed, [7] [5] [4] and can be used to diagnose a wide range of histopathologic conditions. [8]

  3. Eosinophilic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eosinophilic

    A basophil granulocyte is surrounded by lightly staining eosinophilic erythrocytes in an H&E staining. Eosinophilic (Greek suffix -phil-, meaning loves eosin) is the staining of tissues, cells, or organelles after they have been washed with eosin, a dye. Eosin is an acidic dye for staining cell cytoplasm, collagen, and muscle fibers.

  4. Basophilic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basophilic

    Main staining types when using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E). A Basophil granulocyte stains dark purple upon H&E staining. Basophilic is a technical term used by pathologists. It describes the appearance of cells, tissues and cellular structures as seen through the microscope after a histological section has been stained with a basic dye.

  5. Diff-Quik - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diff-Quik

    [1] [2] [3] The Diff-Quik procedure is based on a modification of the Wright-Giemsa stain pioneered by Harleco in the 1970s, [1] and has advantages over the routine Wright-Giemsa staining technique in that it reduces the 4-minute process into a much shorter operation and allows for selective increased eosinophilic or basophilic staining ...

  6. Basophil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basophil

    The degranulation of basophils can be investigated in vitro by using flow cytometry and the so-called basophil-activation-test (BAT). Especially, in the diagnosis of allergies including of drug reactions (e.g. induced by contrast medium), the BAT is of great impact. [14]

  7. Cowdry bodies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowdry_bodies

    Cowdry bodies are eosinophilic or basophilic [1] nuclear inclusions composed of nucleic acid and protein seen in cells infected with Herpes simplex virus, Varicella-zoster virus, and Cytomegalovirus. They are named after Edmund Cowdry. There are two types of intranuclear Cowdry bodies: Type A (as seen in herpes simplex and VZV) [2]

  8. Acidophile (histology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acidophile_(histology)

    Main staining types when using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), where acidophile cells stain eosinophilic. Acidophile (or acidophil, or, as an adjectival form, acidophilic) is a term used by histologists to describe a particular staining pattern of cells and tissues when using haematoxylin and eosin stains. Specifically, the name refers to ...

  9. Eosin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eosin

    Eosin Y Eosin B. Eosin is the name of several fluorescent acidic compounds which bind to and form salts with basic, or eosinophilic, compounds like proteins containing amino acid residues such as arginine and lysine, and stains them dark red or pink as a result of the actions of bromine on eosin.
