Abstract
A new staining solution named "PHOL" is described for studying the morphology of clinical and environmental isolates of fungi and Prototheca. In total 69 isolates were used for assessing the efficacy of this newly formulated stain. The solution has shown good ability to stain all 62 isolates of fungi and 7 of Prototheca, and thus helped in the identification of the organisms. The new solution has the potential to stain the young as well as old isolates of fungi and Prototheca. It is emphasized that a wider application of this newly introduced inexpensive and safe staining solution will help the mycologists to study the morphological characteristics of yeast, molds, and Prototheca obtained from man, animals and environment.
