Mike,
There are a number of yellow counterstains commonly used, including picric
acid.
For your purpose, I would recommend the following in order of preference;
Tartrazine (Acid yellow 23, Food yellow 4) CI 19140,
Metanil yellow (Acid yellow 31) CI 13065,
Martius yellow (Acid yellow 24) CI 10315.
Regards,
Bryan

Subject: [Histonet] Yellow counterstain
I have seen Tissue sections counterstained with a yellow counterstain. I
would like to use an Iron hematoxylin with this counter stain. Can anyone
tell me what this is? Are there any tips/tricks to this counterstain? Thanks
in advance!
Mike
