Prepare wet mounts of intestinal protozoa using Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ BactiDrop Dobell and O’Connor Iodine stain. In 1921, Dobell and O’Connor formulated the iodine solution for staining of protozoan cysts in fecal specimens1. They found that a weak iodine solution that could obscure or entrap organisms did not coagulate fecal particles. It has also been reported that a weak iodine solution does not adversely affect the refractile nature of stained organisms, as concentrated iodine does2.
