With the increasing interest in the diagnosis of malignant cells in various exudates and body fluids, a method demonstrating certain nucleolar changes in considerable detail may be of value. I t is t he purpose of this paper to present such a method and to discuss briefly the nucleolar changes in benign and malignant tissues and also to point out the potential applicability of this method as an...

From the time the Leishman stain has been used for staining blood cells and parasites, it has been dissolved in acetone-free good quality methyl alcohol. Dissolving the stain in inferiorquality methyl alcohol or ethyl alcohol always gives poor results and hsematologists and parasitologists requiring precision work would always use acetone-free methyl alcohol of the best quality. After the secon...

It is not uncommon to receive hemorrhagic fluids for cytological examination. The red blood cells impair diagnostic efficacy of smears. The body fluid can be processed in many waysNSRT (Normal saline rehydration technique) is one such technique. The present study was done to evaluate quality of smears prepared by NSRT and Carnoy’s fixation. The smears were stained by Hematoxylin & Eosin and Lei...
