The study analyzed the value of the May-Grünwald-Giemsa-stain to detect mast cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. 32 consecutive BAL samples were stained with May-Grünwald-Giemsa and with Toluidine blue, a special stain for mast cells. Both stains were equally suitable to detect mast cells in BAL. The Diffquick-stain, however, was not able to stain mast cells in BAL.
