GIEMSA STAIN
PREANALYTICAL CONSIDERATIONS
I. Principle
Giemsa stain is ud to differentiate nuclear and/or cytoplasmic morphology of platelets, RBCs, WBCs, and parasites (1,2).  The most dependable stain for blood parasites, particularly in thick films, is Giemsa stain containing azure B.  Liquid stock is available commercially.  The stain must be diluted for u with water buffered to pH 6.8 or 7.0 to 7.2, depending on the specific technique ud.  Either should be tested for proper staining reaction before u.  The stock is stable for years, but it must be protected from moisture becau the staining reaction is oxidative.  Therefore, the oxygen in water will initiate the reaction and ruin the stock stain.  The aqueous working dilution of stain is good only for 1 day.
II. Specimen
The specimen usually consists of fresh whole blood collected by finger puncture or of whole blood containing EDTA (0.020 g/10 ml of blood) that was collected by venipuncture and is less than 1 h old. 
Heparin (2 mg/10 ml of blood) or sodium citrate (0.050 g/10 ml of blood) may be ud as an anticoagulant if trypanosomes or microfilariae are suspected.  If slides have been prepared, the specimen may be a thin blood film that has been fixed in absolute methanol and allowed to dry, a thick blood film that has been allowed to dry thoroughly and is not fixed, or a combination of a fixed thin film and an adequately dried thick film (not fixed). The combination thick/thin blood film is also acceptable.

4. Paper with newsprint-size print
5. Applicator sticks
C. Equipment
1. Microscope, binocular with mechanical stage; low (10x), high dry (40x),
and oil immersion (100x) objectives; 10x oculars; calibrated ocular
micrometer; light source equivalent to 20-W halogen or 100-W
tungsten bulb; blue and while ground-glass diffur filters
2. Timer, 1 h or more in 1-min increments
ANALYTICAL CONSIDERATIONS
IV. Quality Control
A. The stock buffer solutions and buffered water should be clear, with no visible contamination.
B. Check the Giemsa stain reagents, including the pH of the buffered water, before each u.
C. Prepare and stain films from “normal” blood, and microscopically evaluate the staining
reactions of the RBCs, platelets, and WBCs; this asssment can also be accomplished by
the examination of your patient slide.  If the staining reactions are acceptable, then the QC is
considered acceptable.
a. Macroscopically, blood films appear purplish.  If blue, the buffered water was too alkaline;
if pink to red, the buffered water was too acid.
b. Microscopically, RBCs appear pinkish gray, platelets appear deep pink, and WBCs have
purple-blue nuclei and lighter cytoplasm.  Eosinophilic granules are bright purple-red, and
neutrophilic granules are purple.  Basophilic stippling within uninfected RBCs is blue.
c. Slight variation may appear in the colors described above depending on the batch of
stain ud and the character of the blood itlf, but if the various morphological structures
are distinct, the stain is satisfactory.
D. Although there is not universal agreement, the microscope should probably be recalibrated
once each year.  This recommendation should be considered with heavy u or if the
microscope has been bumped or moved multiple times.  If the microscope does not receive
heavy u, then recalibration is not required on a yearly basis.
E. Record all QC results.
V. Procedure
A.      Wear gloves when performing this procedure.
B.      Thin blood films (only)
1. Fix air-dried film in absolute methanol by dipping the film briefly (two dips) in a Coplin
jar containing absolute methanol.
2. Remove and let air dry.
3. Stain with diluted Giemsa stain (1:20, vol/vol) for 20 min.  For a 1:20 dilution, add 2
ml of stock Giemsa to 40 ml of buffered water in a Coplin jar.
4. Wash by briefly dipping the slide in and out of a Coplin jar of buffered water (one or
two dips).  Note:  Excessive washing will decolorize the film.
5. Let air dry in a vertical position.
C. Thick blood films (only)
1. Allow film to air dry thoroughly for veral hours or overnight.  Do not dry films in an
incubator or by heat, becau this will fix the blood and interfere with the lysing of the
RBCs.  Note:  If a rapid diagnosis of malaria is needed, thick films can be made
slightly thinner than usual, allowed to dry for 1 h, and then stained.
2. DO NOT FIX.
3. Stain with diluted Giemsa stain (1:50, vol/vol) for 50 min.  For a 1:50 dilution, add 1
ml of stock Giemsa to 50 ml of buffered water in a Coplin jar.
4. Wash by placing film in buffered water  for 3 to 5 min.
5. Let air dry in a vertical position.
D. Thin and thick blood films on the same slide
1. Allow the thick film to air dry thoroughly
2. Fix air-dried film in absolute methanol by dipping the film briefly (two dips) in a Coplin
jar containing absolute methanol.  Be sure not to get the alcohol or its fumes on the
thick film by slightly tilting the slide.
3. Remove and let air dry with the thick film up.  Be sure slide is thoroughly dry before
staining.  Introducing even a minute amount of methyl alcohol into the stain dilution
will interfere with the lysing of the RBCs in the thick films.
4. Stain the entire slide with diluted Giemsa stain (1:50, vol/vol) for 50 min.  For a 1:50
dilution, add 2 ml of stock Giemsa to 40 ml of buffered water in a Coplin jar.  Place
the slide in the stain, thick film dow n to prevent the debris caud by
dehemoglobinization from falling onto the thin film.
5. Rin the thin film by briefly dipping the film in and out of a Coplin jar of buffered
water (one or two dips).  Wash the thick film for 3 to 5 min.  Be sure that the thick film
is immerd but do not allow the water to cover any part of the thin film.
6. Let air dry in a vertical position with the thick film down.
E. Combination thin and thick blood films on the same slide (e protocol) (Figure 1)
1. Place a clean 1- by 3-in. glass microscope slide on a horizontal surface.
2. Place a drop (30 to 40 µl) of blood onto one end of the slide about 0.5 in. from the
end
3. Using an applicator stick lying across the glass slide and keeping the applicator in
contact with the blood and glass, rotate (do not “roll”) the stick in a circular motion
while moving the stick down the glass slide to the opposite end.
4. The appearance of the blood smear should be alternate thick and thin areas of blood
that cover the entire slide.
5. Immediately place the film over some small print and be sure that the print is just
barely readable.
6. Allow the film to air dry horizontally and protected from dust for at least 30 min to 1 h.
Do not attempt to speed the drying process by applying any type of heat, becau
the heat will fix the RBCs and they subquently will not ly in the staining process.
7. This slide can be stained as either a thick or thin blood film.
8. Label the slide appropriately.
9. If staining with Giemsa (as a thick film) will be delayed for more than 3 days or if the
film will be stained with Wright’s stain, ly the RBCs on the thick film by placing the花样符号
slide in buffered water (pH 7.0 to 7.2) for 10 min, remove it from the water, and place
it in a vertical position to air dry.
10. If staining with Giemsa (as a thin film), after the film is completely dry, fix it by
dipping the slide into absolute methanol, and allow the film to air dry in a vertical
position.  If the film will be stained with Wright’s stain, it does not need to be fixed.
Wright’s stain contains the fixative and stain in one solution.
VI.  Results
A. If Plasmodium organisms are prent, the cytoplasm stains blue and the nuclear material
stains red to purple.
B. Schüffner’s stippling and other inclusions in the RBCs infected by Plasmodium spp. stain red.
C. Nuclear and Cytoplasmic colors that are en in the malarial parasites will also be en in the
trypanosomes and any intracellular leishmaniae that are prent.
D. The sheath of microfilariae may or may not stain with Giemsa, while the body will usually
appear blue to purple.
E.
POSTANALYTICAL  CONSIDERATIONS
VII.  Reporting Results
A. Report any parasite, including the stage(s) en (do not u abbreviations).
Examples:  Plasmodium falciparum rings and gametocytes, rings only
Plasmodium vivax rings, trophozoites, schizonts, and gametocytes
Wuchereria bancrofti microfilariae
圪针
Trypanosoma brucei gambien/rhodesien trypomastigotes
Trypanosoma cruzi trypomastigotes
Leishmania donovani amastigotes
B. Any laboratory providing malaria diagnos should be able to identify Plasmodium vivax and
Plasmodium ovale, even in the abnce of Schüffner’s stippling.
VIII.  Procedure Notes
A. Blood films prepared from venipuncture blood when an anticoagulant is ud must be
prepared within 1 h of collection.  Otherwi, certain morphological characteristics of both
parasites and infected RBCs may be atypical.  Also, thick blood films may wash off the slide
during the staining procedure.
B. The correct pH for all buffered-water and staining solutions is also important.  Solutions with
the incorrect pH will prevent certain morphological characteristics (stippling) from being
visible and will not give typical nuclear and cytoplasmic colors on the stained film.
C. Stain a QC slide each time patient blood films are stained (the patient slide can actually be
ud for the QC slide.  If a parate QC slide is ud and veral patient specimens are
stained on the same day (using the same reagents), only one control slide need be stained
and examined.皮衣怎么搭配
IX.  Limitations of the Procedure
A. Finding no parasites in one t of blood films does not rule out a parasitic infection.
B. Examine a minimum of 300 oil immersion (x 1,000) fields before reporting no parasites found.
C. Examine the entire smear under low power (100x) for the prence of microfilariae.
歌颂老师的散文Remember that the sheath may not be visible stained with Giemsa (W. bancrofti).
D. If a tube of blood containing EDTA cools to room temperature and the cap has been
removed, veral parasite changes can occur.  The parasites within the RBCs with
respond as if they were now in the mosquito after being taken in with a blood meal.
The morphology of the changes in the life cycle and within the RBCs can cau
confusion when examining blood films prepared from this blood.
a. Stippling (Schüffner’s dots) may not be visible.
b. The male gametocyte (if prent) may exflagellate.
c. The ookinetes of Plasmodium species other than P. falciparum may develop as if
they were in the mosquito and may mimic the crescent-shaped gametocytes of P.
falciparum.
E. Identification to species, particularly between P. ovale and P. vivax and between the ring
forms of P. falciparum and Babesia spp., may be impossible without examining one of the
slides stained as a thin blood film.  Also, Trypanosoma cruzi trypomastigotes are frequently

distorted in thick films.
F. Excess stain deposition on the film may be confusing and make the detection of organisms
difficult.
