Product details
| Intended Use | Picro-Sirius Red Stain Kit is intended for use in the histological visualization of thin septa and collagen fibers. This modification of the Picro-Sirius Red stain eliminates the yellow cytoplasmic staining that can obscure thin collagenous septa. Using this procedure easily allows viewing of collagenous septa as thin as 0.2-0.5 microns. The PSR stain may be viewed using standard light microscopy or polarized light resulting in birefringence of the collagen fibers. Light Microscopy Collagen: Red Septa: Red Cytoplasm: Colorless to Slightly Yellow Polarized Light Microscopy Collagen: Yellow-Orange and Green Birefringence Control Tissue: Cardiac Muscle Uterus Lung Kidney. |
