Wright-Giemsa Staining Method
Definition 1
Geimsa is a polychromatic stain that permits the differentiation of cells present in hematopoietic tissues and for the demonstration of certain microorganisms. It is used for the detection of helicobacter pylori. The H. pylori and nuclei stain dark blue and cytoplasm stain pink with this stain (From BioGenex). (NCI Thesaurus)
Definition 2
A microscopy staining method that is a combination of the Wright and Giemsa staining protocols and utilizes the Romanowsky stains, which are mixtures of eosin and thiazine dyes such as methylene blue. It produces darker blue and magenta shades than the giemsa stain alone, which may provide better contrast in microscopy. (NCI Thesaurus/CDISC)
