Stain Kits
Grocott kit, stabilised
Seven-reagent kit for visualization of fungi and histological argentaffin structures in general (such as basal membranes). Green counterstain provides clear and visually rich contrast to target structures stained black.
Stain Kits
H.B.F.P. kit
Three-reagent Hematoxylin-Basic Fuchsin-Picric acid staining kit for detection of cardiac muscle changes after ischemia or myocardial infarction. H.B.F.P. kit is a non-enzymatic histochemical technique for detection of early myocardial ischemia with vivid contrast.
Stain Kits
Hematoxylin P.T.A. kit
Four-reagent Hematoxylin-Phosphotungstic Acid kit for differentiation of smooth and striated muscle tissues as well as for the detection of fibrin, collagen and elements of the central nervous system according to Mallory.
Stain Kits
Hematoxylin W kit
Acid-resistant hematoxylin according to Weigert. Two-reagent kit that stains the nuclei blue-black, often a component of special staining kits for connective tissues.
Stain Kits
Hematoxylin W kit 2x500ml
Acid-resistant hematoxylin according to Weigert. Two-reagent kit that stains the nuclei blue-black, often a component of special staining kits for connective tissues.
Stain Kits
HemoGnost Perls kit
Three-reagent HemoGnost Perls (Prussian blue / Berlin blue) kit for the detection of reactive ferric (Fe3+) (not bound to haemoglobin) ions in cells. It is often applied on bone marrow and spleen cells.
Stain Kits
Luxol Fast Blue kit
Three-reagent kit for staining myelin and myelinated axons, Nissl bodies and phospholipids according to Kluwer-Barrera. The kit is used for identifying the basic neuronal structure in the brain or spinal cord sections.
Stain Kits
Mallory Trichrome kit
Three-reagent staining kit for connective tissue visualisation and detection of collagen, cartilage, muscle, elastic fibres, mucous, pituarity cells, reticulum, bones, amyloid and erythrocytes.
Stain Kits
Martius Scarlet Blue (MSB) kit
Seven-reagent kit used for fibrin visualisation, especially of older clusters. This method is a modification of Masson Trichrome and is ideal for studying connective tissue and vascular pathology.
Martius Scarlet Blue (MSB) kit, 6x100ml+1x250ml
Seven-reagent kit used for fibrin visualisation, especially of older clusters. This method is a modification of Masson Trichrome and is ideal for studying connective tissue and vascular pathology.
Stain Kits
Masson Fontana kit
Six-reagent melanin and argentaffin granule staining kit, based on the reduction of silver nitrate to elemental silver. Melanin is a brown-black pigment normally present in the hair, skin, retina, iris and certain parts of CNS. Argentaffin granules are found in carcinoid tumours.
Stain Kits
Masson Trichrome kit
Seven-reagent kit for staining muscle and collagen fibers with a blue counterstain. It is also used for visualizing gametes, nuclei, neurofibrils, glial cells, keratins and intercellular fibrils. The kit may be useful for detecting collagen in smooth muscle cancer or diseases like cirrhosis.
Stain Kits
Masson-Goldner Trichrome kit
Seven-reagent kit for staining muscle and collagen fibres with green counterstain. It is also used for visualising gametes, nuclei, neurofibrils, glial cells, keratins, intercellular fibrils and for differentiation of smooth muscle fibres and collagens.
Stain Kits
Mucicarmine kit
Mucicarmine kit is often used to identify primary tumour sites, distinguishing mucin-negative undifferentiated squamous cell lesions from mucin-positive adenocarcinomas. It can also be used as indicative of diseases such as asthma, bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and cystic fibrosis.
Stain Kits
Nuclear Fast Red (Kernechtrot) Reagent
Nuclear Fast Red dye solution for staining nuclei. Counterstain in many special staining kits.
Stain Kits
Oil Red O Kit
Four-reagent kit for selective staining and detection of fat cells and neutral fats according to Johnson. It can be used with frozen sections and fresh smears to detect obesity-linked pathologies such as dyslipidemia and diabetes type.
Stain Kits
Orcein kit
Five-reagent kit for visualisation of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) seen as viral inclusion bodies in hepatocytes, for elastic fibres and copper associated protein in tissue sections. It can be used with frozen sections.
Stain Kits
P.A.S. kit
Five-reagent Periodic Acid-Schiff kit for staining aldehydes, muccopolysaccharides, mucoproteins and lymphocytes according to Hotchkiss-McManus. P.A.S. staining may also be used for the demonstration of fungal organisms in tissue sections.
Stain Kits
P.A.S.M. / Jones kit, stabilised
Seven-reagent Periodic Acid Silver Methenamine kit for staining kidney glomerular basement membranes. Kit includes red counterstain which provides visually rich contrast to target structures stained black.
