Methylene Blue Solution (Loeffler's) is used in various procedures such as the Ziehl-Neelsen, Fite's, and Gram stain. The stain is also suggested for use in staining a variety of bacteria (Corynebacterium diphtheria, Haemophilus influenzae, Neisseria, etc.) and leukocytes. This reagent produces dark blue nuclei with lighter blue cytoplasm.
