Barry Rittman observes: >>One group of dyes that I do not believe has ben mentioned is the Procion group of dyes. These are chloro-s-triazone dyes that are used extensively in textile dyeing and are resistant to all the solvents of which I am aware and will survive processing through paraffin wax. Readily available at many art stores. They come in a wide variety of colors. They interact with proteins. Their drawback is that many are fluorescent (and were originally intended as markers for hard tissue growth due to their solvent resistance).<<
But if they aren't in insoluble particles, then I won't be able to see them under the microscope!
