Eosin Y Aqueous Solution (0.5%)

Eosin is a synthetic dye that typically appears as a peach-pink or pink powder. It is most commonly used in conjunction with hematoxylin to visualize the morphology of normal or pathological tissues.

This reagent is suitable for bacterial staining, smear preparations, and tissue counterstaining. Additionally, it is applicable for Field's staining of blood cells and can be used for live/dead cell discrimination. The solution can be used directly or after dilution, with a recommended working concentration of 0.1%-1%.
