You searched for: Stains
Overcome normal optical limitations in microscopic studies by highlighting specific structures with stains and reagents and then protect samples with fixatives. The fast-acting dyes create strong contrasts between cell components for easier detection or analyses. Sensitive attractions to certain organelle or cellular components differ among offered stains, allowing precise testing modifications. Flexible in use, ready-to-use stains may be handled manually or in conjunction with automatic equipment.

Differentiation Solution
Supplier: SIGMA ALDRICH MICROSCOPY
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.

Osteo-Bed Bone Embedding Solvent
Supplier: SIGMA ALDRICH MICROSCOPY
For use with Osteo-bed bone embedding kit. Solvent for removal of plastic from sections prior to rehydration and staining. Most histochemical and immunohistochemistry staining protocols require the removal of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and rehydration of mounted sections for improved stain penetration and greater contrast.

VWR®, Nucleic acid loading dyes
Supplier: VWR Chemicals
Designed to optimise loading nucleic acids in agarose gels, the loading dye imparts colour to the sample to facilitate the loading process and increase the density of the sample to ensure efficient sample distribution into each well. The dye migrates independently from the sample, allowing estimation of the migration of nucleic acids.
