Solution III Buffer

This stain kit (a modified Wright Giemsa formulation) utilizes an alcohol fixative and stain in combination with a buffer solution (pH range - 6.8 to 7.2). All cellular elements are stained. The use of a thin smear allows for easy visualization of inclusions, extracellular forms and the size of red cells. Their characteristic morphologies are used for differentiation.
