General description

Hematoxylin crystals are a dye for the specific staining of DNA in the nuclei. It is used in cytology and histology. Nuclei are stained blue, dark violet to black. Hematoxylins are mixed with trivalent positively charged metal salts and build up the so-called hematoxylin lakes, used for the selective staining of nuclei (DNA) .
It is an IVD registered product and CE certified, thus can be used for clinical diagnostic purposes. For more details, please see instructions for use (IFU).
