## Description

High quality, great value – Methylene Blue and Eosin Y Bundle Kit – in Easy-to-Use Amber Glass Dropper Bottles Methylene Blue and Eosin Y are the most common and safe stains for general laboratory. They work perfectly with your biological microscope. The kit includes a user manual with the information of stains, examples of staining, and product safety documents (MSDS). Also a great gift for students, teachers, homeschool parents, and science Enthusiasts! Methylene blue (1% aqueous solution) Methylene Blue is a popular alkaline stain used to stain animal cells to make nuclei more visible. Methylene blue binds DNA which is very abundant in the nucleus. Cell stained by methylene blue will show the nucleus with deep blue color. It also helps make cells show up against their background, where their shape can help you determine what they are (their morphology). Methylene blue is also used by aquarium hobbyist for preventing fungal disease. Eosin Y (0.5% aqueous solution) Eosin Y Stain is a counterstain to Methylene Blue. It is most commonly used as an acidic red stain for highlighting red blood cells, cytoplasmic material, cell membranes, and extracellular structures in pink or red colors. In the hospital, Eosin's most important medical uses are H&E (haematoxylin and eosin) staining. H&E staining is one of the most commonly used techniques in histology. Tissue stained with haematoxylin and eosin shows cytoplasm stained pink-orange and nuclei stained darkly, either blue or purple. All solutions are for educational use only. Not for Food, Drug or Cosmetic Use. Keep Out of Reach of Children.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has anyone been able to perform a blood smear with this product? I have tried to perform a blood smear -nothing works. Does anyone have an insight?**
A: This product is a water based stain.  Unfortunately it will tend to wash the blood off the slide unless you fix the blood smear with methanol before using the stains.  Even then you will tend to have poor luck.  This product is useful to stain cells for counting in a hemocytometer, but not so much for blood smears.  I would suggest buying some methanol to fix the smears then using Wrights stain in methanol solution for staining.  A cheap source of methanol is HEET gas line additive and water remover (yellow bottle) from your auto parts store.  It is pure methanol. Fixing the smear simply means putting the slide in methanol for 30 seconds.

**Q: Do you have to clean the slide with deionized water or do you just put the stain directly on the slide?**
A: If the slide is new, wipe off dust, if there is any. If the slide has been used and has methylene blue on it, you may need to clear the stain with a bleach solution.  Otherwise, wiping a used slide with alcohol may be good enough.

**Q: Are they in powder form or solution? If in solution, are they water or alcohol-based?**
A: Solution, water-based.

**Q: Why can't this be supplemented? It is lab grade or lower quality?**
A: What do you mean by supplemented? 
These work as well as lab grade. What are you staining?
