Astra Blue Solution after WACKER
Astrablau solution according to WACKER is primarily used to stain plant structures and tissues. In botany, it is used to visualize cell walls and cell compartments, especially in the study of xylem and phloem structures, which are responsible for water and nutrient transport in plants.
Astrablau is a basic dye that binds to acidic polysaccharides in plant cell walls. The aqueous base ensures uniform distribution of the dye, while acetic acid improves staining efficiency and penetration.
WACKER's Astrablau solution is particularly suitable for imaging plant cell walls and assists researchers in studying cell morphology and architecture. It contributes to better analysis and interpretation of plant samples and provides detailed insights into the structures and functions of plant cells.
