Congo Red Highman kit is used for staining amyloids (amorphous clusters). Amyloid deposits are stained characteristically red, but under polarised light they display double refraction and result in green metachromasia.
Congo Red Highman kit
Three-reagent kit for staining amyloids, characteristic for use of alkaline solution as differentiation medium in order to avoid undesirable non-specific colouration of cellular substances. Amyloid deposits display green colouration under polarised light.
