General description

The Wright′s eosin methylene blue solution for microscopy, is a ready-to-use solution used in the staining method according to Wright, is one of the standard techniques in hematological diagnostic procedures. Like Leishman′s eosin methylene blue solution and May-Grünwald′s eosin methylene blue solution, it is used for staining of blood and bone marrow smears and clinical cytological specimens.
The Wright′s eosin methylene blue solution is an IVD / CE product and 500 ml are sufficient for staining up to 1000 slides in Hellendahl cells. For more details, please see instructions for use (IFU). The IFU can be downloaded from this webpage.
