Abstract
A method is provided for analyzing and characterizing the formulation of a cell stain. In particular, the present invention provides a method of stain quality control using parameters derived from an imaging based automated cytology system to characterize the stain performance.
Claims11
A method for evaluating stain or dye performance comprising comparing the parameters derived from an imaging based automated cytology system to characterize said stain performance.
A method for evaluating stain or dye performance in staining processes which utilize dyes to stain cells or tissue, which comprises comparing the integrated optical density measurements derived from an imaging based automated cytology system to characterize said stain performance.
