Product details

Cresyl Violet Stain Solution (0.1%) (ab246816) is designed for staining Nissl substance in neurons on formalin fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue. Nissil granules are purple, nuclei of neuroglia and endothelial cells are slightly bluer than Nissl granules.

Nissil Substance: Violet.

Neuroglia Nuclei: Violet to Dark Blue.

Control Tissue: Cerebral Cortex

Procedure:

1. Deparaffinize sections and hydrate to distilled water.

2. Incubate slide in Cresyl Violet Stain Solution (0.1%) for 2-5 minutes.

3. Rinse quickly in 1 change of distilled water.

4. Dehydrate quickly in absolute alcohol. (Alcohol may remove stain from tissue over time).

5. Clear in Xylene or Xylene substitute and mount in synthetic resin.
