Important terms (Acidophilic, Basic, etc.)
Examples of some stains you’ll see
Vital stain (of blood smear)
EMs
Any specific questions you have,
please hold to the end.
Basophilic
• Basophilic structures are
stained by basic dyes:
– Basic dyes are positive
– Basophilic structures are
negative (ex. DNA, RNA,
ribosomes, RER)
• Mnemonic:
Basophilic = Blue
Online Reference: Lab #1 Slide #14
Acidophilic (Eosinophilic)
• Acidophilic structures are
stained by acid dyes:
– Acid dyes are negative
– Acidophilic structures
are positive (ex.
Proteins, collagen,
cytoplasm)
• Eosinophilic = Pink
Online Reference: Lab #1 Slide #14

the structure at the
pointer?

Nissl Stain
Lab #1 Slide #1
Lab #1 Slide #2
Nissl Stain
• Blackish blue
• Stains negatively charged
structures
• Nissl substance (bodies) =
stacks of RER and free
polyribosomes
• Nucleolus = site of rRNA
synthesis
Lab #1 Slide #3
Question 2
•
What cellular
function is occurring
in this region of this
cell?
a)
b)
c)
d)
Lab #1 Slide #3
rRNA transcription
RNA translation
Protein degradation
DNA degradation

Eosin (H&E)
• Pink
• Stains Eosinophilic
structures ex. Proteins,
collagen
Lab #1 Slide #13
Hemotoxylin (H&E)
• Blue, purple or blackish
• Stains Basophilic
structures ex. DNA,
ribosomes, RNA
– Euchromatin is DNA in
USE. It is spread out,
diffuse, and less stained.
– Heterochromatin is
condensed DNA, and
stains dark blue.
Lab #1 Slide #13
Periodic Acid Schiff
&Hematoxylin (PAS)
• Pink, Magenta
• Stains carbohydrates and
carb. rich macromolecules
ex. Glycogen, mucin,
basement membrane, etc.
• If you see PAS, think
CARBOHYDRATES.

Acid Fuschin-Toluidin Blue
• Pink and Blue
– Pink = acid Fuschin
– Blue = Toluidin
• Akin to H&E
• Note that:
– Acid dyes stain apical
surface
– Basic dyes stain basal
surface
