Additional product description

Alcian blue is used to stain acidic mucopolysaccharides. This “Alcian blue solution, pH 2.5 - for microscopy” is used for human-med - ical cell diagnosis and serves the histological investigation of sample mate - rial of human origin. It is a ready-to-use staining solution that when used together with other in vitro diagnostic products from our portfolio makes target structures evaluable for diagnostic purposes (by fixing, embedding, staining, counterstaining, mounting) in human-histological specimen mate - rials, for example histological sections of e. g. the intestine or stomach. The present ready-to-use Alcian blue solution, pH 2.5 can be used for the staining of acid mucopolysaccharides in histological tissue. Unstained structures are relatively low in contrast and are extremely diffi - cult to distinguish under the light microscope. The images created using the staining solutions help the authorized and qualified investigator to better define the form and structure in such cases. Further examinations ma y be necessary to reach a definitive diagnosis.
