Cytoplasmic Stains

Eosin-Phloxine Solution is intended for use in the histological demonstration of cytoplasm.  The addition of Phloxine to Eosin results in more vibrant staining than with Eosin alone.  When used correctly, Eosin-Phloxine various shades of pink can be obtained to aid in visualization of tissue components.

Cytoplasm:           Pink to Red
Erythrocytes:        Pink to Red
Alcoholic Hyalin:    Pink

Eosin Y Solution is intended for use in the histological demonstration of cytoplasm and is commonly used as a counterstain for Hematoxylin.  When used correctly, various shades of pink can be obtained to aid in visualization of tissue components.  Erythrocytes, collagen, and the cytoplasm of muscle or epithelial cells will stain with different shads of pink.

Cytoplasm:      Pink to Red
Erythrocytes:  Pink to Red
Nuclei:           Black/Blue (Hematoxylin)

Spec Sheet

OG-6 is a cytologic stain routinely used in diagnostic cytology to aid in the identification and classification of exfoliative cells.  The stain is used for examining exfoliative cells of vaginal, cervical, sputum, as well as other body secretions.  Commonly used in combination with hematoxylin.
