Eosin and eosinophilic should not be merged because eosin is a stain used for histology and eosinophilic is a term used for multiple diagnoses in histopathology. they are not the same subject and merging them would be a dis-service. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.188.103.44 (talk) 02:33, 18 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Eosin and eosinophilic should be merged. Eosin is a stain used for histology. Eosinophilic just means "liking eosin" i.e. something that is stained well by eosin. Jon salisbury (talk) 15:16, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Consistency should be the primary criterion. If you merge eosin and eosinophilic, then should not basophil and basophilic be merged, ad infinitum?Medic4 (talk) 14:17, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Chembox needed

Can somebody add a chembox please? --Kupirijo (talk) 11:30, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please see {{Chembox new}}. It explains there which code to copy and paste into this document (I suggest the medium form in most cases). Hope this helps! --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 11:33, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Etymology

While its a good story to say Caro named eosin after a lady, the point is that it is actually named after "Eos, the rose-fingered goddess of the dawn" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eos) and thus is based, language-wise, on the Greek term "eos" for dawn (which also stands for: "red sky at morning") and refers to the color of the substance. While it is true that the lady in question (Anna Peters by name) bore the nickname "rose-fingered Eos" and may have inspired the naming choice, the actual etymology is based on the Greekt term eos and its association to red color. 138.246.3.168 (talk) 14:03, 7 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
