Differentiation solution comprises acidified ethanol or isopropanol that is used to decolourise hematoxylin stain. The duration of exposure to the solution determines the degree of decolourisation. Differentiation is a crucial step in hematoxylin-eosin staining to achieve the proper colour contrast necessary for visualisation, by selectively removing excess hematoxylin from the tissue section and leaving behind the desired staining intensity.

Lugol′s solution is a ready-to-use solution that comprises 6% iodine in 4% potassium iodide. It is commonly used as a mordant for Gram staining in bacteriology. It is used for staining bacterial target structures for diagnostic purposes by fixing, staining, counterstaining, and mounting bacteriological specimen materials.

In hematoxylin-eosin staining (H&E), the most widely used histological staining technique, nuclear staining is achieved using ready-to-use staining solutions, such as Mayer’s hemalum solution or Hematoxylin solution modified according to Gill III. These solutions do not need to be filtrated prior use and the dye is oxidized in a controlled manner, which renders the results robust and allows a brilliant differentiation of the stained structures. Counterstaining of i.e. for proteins, collagen, keratin, intercellular substances. can be performed with alcoholic or aqueous Eosin Y solution 0.5 %. It is registered as IVD and CE certified product and can be used for clinical diagnostics.

Giemsa stain is a versatile differential stain that is widely used in hematology for blood and bone marrow specimens, clinical cytology specimens, bacteriology, histological biopsies, and tumor samples. Giemsa's staining solution is composed of methylene blue, azure, and eosin. It is a major histological stain due to its unique staining of chromatin, nuclear membranes, and cytoplasmic elements. The stain is frequently used in combination with other dye solutions: May-Grünwald’s solution for Pappenheim (MGG) and Wright-Giemsa.

Foxp3/transcription factor staining buffer contains specially formulated buffers and solutions for optimal resolution and low background in your analysis of nuclear antigens by flow cytometry. This complete kit contains three components for use in these staining protocols for detection of nuclear antigens such as Foxp3 and ROR gamma. Foxp3/transcription factor fix/perm concentrate (4x) 50 ml. A concentrated solution which, when diluted with Foxp3/transcription factor fix/perm diluent (1x) provides best results in protocols for intranuclear staining of transcription factors using fluorescently conjugated antibodies.

Most mucins contain serveral glycoproteins and can therefore be detected by stains for carbohydrates. Best carmine stain is specifically used for glycogens. Mucicarmine is an empirical stain. When applied for fungal staining, it stains the spores and hyphae as pale to dark red.
