description Product Description
Eosin Y water solution is widely used in biological and medical fields for staining purposes. It is commonly applied in histology to highlight cellular structures, particularly in H&E (hematoxylin and eosin) staining, where it colors cytoplasm, collagen, and muscle fibers pink or red. This helps in visualizing tissue samples under a microscope for diagnostic and research purposes. Additionally, it is utilized in microbiology to stain and identify certain types of cells or microorganisms. In the textile industry, it serves as a dye for fabrics, providing vibrant colors. Eosin Y also finds applications in photography as a sensitizer for certain photographic processes. Its versatility makes it a valuable tool in various scientific and industrial applications.
