Wright Stain
Used for Blood Smears
Basophilic - stains nuclei, ribosome, specific granules of basophils
eosinophilic - stains acidophilic proteins and specific granules of eosinophils
azurophilic - stains nonspecific granules of leukocytes
neutrophilic - stains specific granules of neutrophils
Neutrophil proportion
40-70% of all WBCs
Slightly larger than RBCs
