Giemsa stained
Explanation:
Your source seems misspelled. It also looks like a mix of Swedish and Norwegian, but that does nor matter much here.

The correct Norwegian should probably be 'Giemsafarget'

  -> Thank you. 'Glemsa' does not exist, neither in Norwegian nor Swedish, so I feel confident it is 'Giemsa' being misspelt, particularly in this context..

Somehow the Giemsa part of the term disappeared.
