Giemsa's stain is used for staining blood smears and protozoa for microscopy. It has absorption maxima of 630-650 nm in methanol and 520-525 nm in methanol when dried. The stain must have a minimum absorptivity of 950 and 600 at its two absorption maxima respectively. It is suitable for microscopy and has a maximum limit of 10% loss on drying when heated to 110°C. The stain is not hazardous according to IMDG and IATA transportation codes.
