Cell staining is a technique used in biology and medicine to color cells or cell structures to enhance their visibility under a microscope. The primary reason for staining cells is to distinguish different parts of the cell, such as the nucleus, cytoplasm, and cell membranes, making it easier to study their structure, function, and behavior.

Examples of common stains used in cell staining include:
Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)
crystal violet
Giemsa stain
wright's stain
