Van Gieson trichrome kit is used for staining collagen, muscle tissue, keratinized epithelium, cytoplasm, glial fibres, and erythrocytes. Fuchsin Acid Van Gieson is a component of the kit and it contains two dyes (acid fuchsin, picric acid) that simultaneously stain different tissue structures. Acid fuchsin stains collagen fibres intensive red while picric acid stains muscle fibres, erythrocytes and glial fibres yellow. Amyloids, hyalin, colloid and mucosa are stained in nuances between red and yellow. Hematoxylin, Weigert A and Ferri reagent make up Weigert hematoxylin that creates stable cellular nuclei colouration.

P.A.S. Diastase Kit
BioGnost’s P.A.S. Diastase kit is most commonly used for identifying glycogen in liver. Periodic acid enables the molecules containing glycol groups to create aldehydes affected by Schiff’s reagent staining them violet (magenta). Specific stains are created by applying the PAS method on unsubsti-tuted polysaccharides, mucoproteins and glycoproteins, glycolipids and phospholipids. Alpha-amylase enzyme (also known as diastasis) is used for differentiation between glycogen and other PAS-positive structures by dissolving 1→4 glycosidic bonds, causing the glycogen to remain unstained after the PAS reaction. BioGnost’s P.A.S. Diastase kit uses thermostable enzyme which does not require heating to +37°C to be active, but incubat-ing the section at +37°C is preferred in order to achieve better glycogen breakdown. The same tissue section is used as negative control for this reaction, but the sample is not treated using alpha-amylase.
For 100 tests.
