General description: | Wright Stain is a modified Romanowsky stain commonly used for the cellular elements of blood. Wright’s stain is a mixture of eosin Y with polychromed (oxidized and partly demethylated) methylene blue and therefore termed polychrome stains. The hematological stain is intended for differentially staining peripheral blood and bone marrow films. |
