Additional product description

The PAS (periodic acid Schiff) reaction is one of the most frequently used chemical methods for the detection of aldehyde and mucosubstances in histology. This “Schiff’s reagent - for microscopy” is used for human-medical cell diag - nosis and serves the histological investigation of sample material 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, counter - staining, mounting) in human-histological specimen material, for example histological sections of e. g. the intestine or liver. This ready-to-use Schiff’s reagent can be used to stain mucopolysaccha - rides in histological tissue specimens. 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.
