Dear Laurence,
suggest you try any one of the Romanowsky type methods, viz. Giemsa, Mod.May
Grunwald Giemsa (my preference), or a Mod. wrights stain just as you would
for Campylobacter (Opps, sorry , Helicobacter Jejunni or Pyloridi). You may
find that a rapid Diff Quick may do just as well. Whatever you succeed with,
please let us all know.
Regards Mike (Downunder)
