May-Grünwald-Giemsa Stain

The May-Grünwald-Giemsa (MGG) stain is a special technique used in medical laboratories to examine blood and bone marrow samples under a microscope. It highlights different cell types and structures, allowing scientists and doctors to identify and analyze various blood cells, such as red cells, white cells, and platelets. By coloring the cells with specific dyes, the stain reveals details about cell shape, size, and internal components, aiding in diagnosing blood disorders, infections, and leukemia. The MGG stain is valued for providing clear differentiation of cell features essential for accurate medical diagnosis.
