Diffferentiation of zymosan from phagocytes

Hi,
I have stained some abalone phagocytes (abalone haemocytes are like 
mammalian macrophages) which have phagocytosed zymosan. Stain is 
wrights giemsa. I can easily see the extracellular zymosan but not 
the Intracellular zymosan. Also not clear when a zymosan is inside 
versus stuck on the cell outside. Bruce, our Histologist tells me 
this is a wonderful 'tool' for exchange of information & I AM hoping 
there is someone who can advise me of a 'better' stain which will 
allow me to differentiate/see the intracellular zymosan.
Thanking you in advance,
Celia
