It depends on what tissue you're looking at, what you want to stain, how the tissue has been stored...
Besides very specific staining, there are different types of staining. For example, immunohistochemistry, which uses antibodies to stick coloured stains to cell surface receptors. Or, chemical staining - the most common is H&E staining (haemotoxylin & eosin), so if you're just having fun in a lab and want to see general structures of cells, use this one.

∙ 11y agoThe stain used is called Wrights Stain which is a buffered blood staining solution.
It is a one step hematology stain used for the differential staining of blood smears, bone marrow, and blood parasites. It dates from the 1890's and was originally an alcoholic solution of methylene blue and eosin Y. However, after many modifications today dye samples usually contain mixtures of methylene blue, azure, thionin,eosin and some Giemsa stain.
