Lint: haematoxylin-and-eosin-stain

Acronyms
warning

"Typically, cellular nuclei stain blue (haematoxylin binds to nucleic acids), conversely the cytosol and extracellular substance demonstrate variable pink staining (eosin binds to proteins) 1. For tissue-typing, as well as the diagnosis of cancer, the haematoxylin staining of the condensated chromatin in the cell nucleus provides important information. Moreover when there is floridity of ribosomes in the cytosol there is a clear bluish hue (due to abundant RNA). Golgi bodies may be discerned by their relative lack of staining in close proximity to the cell nucleus."
