17
Q

What is the significance of cytoplasmic acidophilia in a cell

A

Cytoplasmic acidophilia is associated with an abundance of nonribosomal organelles, such as mitochondria.

18
Q

What colors can cells be stained using the Papanicolaou stain?

A

Cells can be stained blue or blue-green (basophilia, cyanophilia), pink (acidophilia, eosinophilia), orange (orangeophilia), or indeterminate (gray-blue)

19
Q

What do Orange G and eosin Y stain?

A

Orange G and eosin Y are acid dyes that stain basic proteins, such as prekeratin

20
Q

What is cytoplasmic orangeophilia associated with?

A

Cytoplasmic orangeophilia is associated with keratinization.

21
Q

Can cellular degeneration affect staining?

A

Yes, cellular degeneration can result in intense eosinophilia or orangeophilia, even in nonsquamous-derived cells.

22
Q

What does light green specifically bind to

A

Light green has an affinity for ribonucleic acids (RNA) in ribosomes
