Field Stain A and B Extra Pure
SHORT DESCRIPTION
Field Stain A and B Extra Pure are specially formulated biological stains used primarily in hematology and microbiology for rapid differential staining of blood smears and parasites, especially in field conditions. Field Stain A typically contains methylene blue and azure dyes dissolved in a phosphate buffer, which preferentially stains the nuclei and cytoplasm of white blood cells. Field Stain B, on the other hand, contains eosin and counterstains the red blood cells and other acidic cellular components. Together, these stains provide excellent contrast and clarity, making them ideal for identifying malarial parasites and conducting quick diagnostic assessments in low-resource or remote environments. Their extra pure quality ensures minimal contamination, consistent performance, and reliable results in both clinical and educational settings.
