Figure 12: Red bell peppers are composed of round cells with conspicuous large granular material (A, B). The dark staining granules are blue and not very distinctive in the MGG stain (B), but are more readily appreciated on PAP stain (B), and can resemble Toxoplasmosis. The MGG smear of snowpeas (C) shows a small sheet consisting of slightly overlapping egg-shaped cells with slightly granular cytoplasm. The PAP smear reveals smaller, polygonal-shaped pattern of blue-gray cell walls (D).
