I would use toluidine blue.  It's a great stain for mast cells.

Subject: [Histonet] Giemsa Stain for Mast Cells

Netters,

 

I am looking for a Giemsa stain for Mast Cells that does not have a
pinkish hue like the Gaffney Giemsa.  We are looking to have the Mast
Cells pop out at us on low power.  Any suggestions/protocols?

 

Thanks,

 

Tom
