=== Bismarck brown === <ref>{{Cite journal| vauthors = Tomov N, Dimitrov N |date=2017|title=Modified bismarck brown staining for demonstration of soft tissue mast cells |url= https://tru.uni-sz.bg/tsj/Vol15_N3_2017/2_N.Tomov.pdf|journal=Trakia Journal of Sciences |volume=15 |issue=3 |pages=195β197 |doi=10.15547/tjs.2017.03.001 |doi-access=free }}</ref>[[Bismarck brown Y|Bismarck brown]] (also Bismarck brown Y or Manchester brown) imparts a yellow colour to acid [[mucin]]s and an intense brown color to mast cells. One default of this stain is that it blots out any other structure surrounding it and makes the quality of the contrast low. It has to be paired with other stains in order to be useful. Some complementing stains used alongside Bismark brown are Hematoxylin and Toluidine blue which provide better contrast within the histology sample.
