H&E is an important tool for disease research and drug development and is being increasingly combined with digital pathology technology. Image quality is important for slide digitization to ensure that interpretation is accurate. Take a look at some images here, produced by our digital pathology scanners.

Alcian Blue is normally prepared at an acidic pH of 2.5  

Eosin Y is an alcohol-based, ready-to-use secondary stain used primarily in histology for routine hematoxylin and eosin staining. It may also be used in cytology for fast cytoplasmic staining of rush specimens also using the H&E technique. Available in various quantities.

All stains and reagents are optimized for use with Leica ST5010 and Leica ST5020, resulting in high quality H&E stains and consistent quality from the first stained slide to the last. High throughput. Time saving, as all stains and reagents exhaust at the same rate, allowing all components of the kit to be loaded on and off the instrument at the same time.

Combines the components of the Alcian Blue and Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS) stain kits. Alcian Blue is normally prepared at an acidic pH of 2.5  PAS staining is mainly used for staining structures containing a high proportion of carbohydrates such as glycogen, glycoproteins, proteoglycans typically found in connective tissues, mucus and basement membranes.  

The Congo Red, Amyloid Stain Kit

Acid Fast Bacillus Stain Kit stains are used to detect and identify acid fast bacilli in tissue. Bacilli are rod-shaped bacterial organisms.

Powdered Stain Eosin Y Dye can be used to prepare Eosin counterstains for Romanovsky techniques and for making EA formulations. The total dye content is stated on each label.

Orange G-6 is an alcohol-based stain used in the cytology laboratory. Available in various quantities.

EA-65 is a light green, alcohol-based stain primarily used in the cytology laboratory for routine cytoplasmic staining. Available in various quantities.
