The stain is formulated as a concentrated liquid stock solution (typically containing a mixture of methylene blue, azure B, and eosin) suspended in glycerol and methanol. When diluted with a buffered solution and applied to a sample, it differentially binds to cellular components to provide high-contrast visualization under a light microscope.

- Polychromatic Staining: Provides a distinct spectrum of colors; acidic structures (DNA, RNA, and some parasites) stain blue to purple, while basic structures (cytoplasm, granules) stain pink or red.
- High Contrast: Delivers exceptional definition of nuclear membranes, chromatin, and specific cytoplasmic structures compared to routine stains.
- Long Shelf Life: The 100 ml concentrated format ensures an extended lifespan for small-to-medium veterinary clinics, provided it is kept tightly closed and protected from moisture and light.
