Basic blue 75: a new stain for erythroblasts.
C.I. basic blue 75 in an aqueous alkaline solution stains the nuclei of mature and immature erythroblasts bright red. Simultaneously, the stain colors the cytoplasm of erythroblasts blue in immature cells and purple in mature cells. Colors of the type described were not found in other normal and abnormal hematopoietic cells.
