Product Description: Basic Fuchsin is widely used in biological staining techniques, particularly in microbiology and histology. It is a key component in the Ziehl-Neelsen stain, which is essential for identifying acid-fast bacteria like Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This stain helps in diagnosing tuberculosis and other related infections by highlighting the bacteria under a microscope. Additionally, Basic Fuchsin is employed in the Schiff reagent for the Feulgen stain, which detects DNA in tissues, aiding in cellular and genetic studies. It is also utilized in gram staining to differentiate bacterial species based on their cell wall properties. Beyond staining, it finds applications in textile dyeing and as a colorant in various industries. Its strong affinity for nucleic acids and proteins makes it a valuable tool in research and diagnostic laboratories.
