Happy New Year, Histonetters! I have always been taught that a Wright-Giemsa stain was strictly for smears, and a different modification (i.e. May-Grunwald) should be used for tissues. I was recently asked what the reasoning was, and to be honest I am not sure. I understand that tissue stains differently from smears, and I would imagine timing would be different, but is there a reason the solutions are different? Very curious.
Thanks! -Liz _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
