Staining Kit: AS (SAFELINE)
The AS - Astrablau-Safranin (SAFELINE) staining kit is a high-quality solution specifically designed for the detailed histological staining of botanical specimens. This product is part of the SAFELINE product line, which is characterized by the use of largely non-hazardous chemicals and is therefore ideally suited for use in schools or for private users.
The contained Safranin O (C20H19N4Cl), a basic dye, binds preferentially to acidic, anionic components in plant cell walls, resulting in an intense red coloration. Astra blue (C45H44N3Na2O7S2), an acidic dye, binds to basic, cationic molecules and colors them blue. The interaction of the two dyes produces a broad color spectrum that allows differentiated observation of cell structures.
In combination with SAFELINE INCLUDAL A and the enclosed rinsing solutions, which effectively remove excess dyes, the staining kit provides an optimal prerequisite for the examination of plant tissues. The chemical properties and the interaction of the components ensure precise and meaningful staining.
