Rapid staining technique

Principle

The structures of particular components of organisms often do not display sufficient contrasts. In order to attain more contrast, the biologist applies staining techniques. A simple method to rapidly display nuclei in wet mounts consists in staining them with Methyl Green or carmine acetic acid.
