<unk>  in a laboratory bottle In hemocytometry,<unk>  (or Türk's fluid) is a hematological stain (either crystal violet or aqueous methylene blue) prepared in 99% acetic acid (glacial) and distilled water. The solution destroys the red blood cells and platelets within a blood sample (acetic acid being the main lyzing agent), and stains the nuclei of the white blood cells, making them easier to see and count.<unk>  is intended for use in determining total leukocyte count in a defined volume of blood. Erythrocytes are hemolyzed while leukocytes are stained for easy visualization. Composition of<unk>  is as follows: Component Volume Crystal violet 1 mL Glacial acetic acid 1.5 mL Distilled water 100 mL
