[Histonet] Nile Red dye

2013-01-24 Thread Perry, Margaret
Is there another name for Nile Red? Could it be a florescent dye? I couldn't find it on the Biological Stain commission or in a reference book from Harleco. I don't know what the stain will be used for. Margaret Perry HT(ASCP) Veterinary Biomedical Sciences Department North Campus Drive Box

Nile red is formed from Nile blue and is used to stain lipids. http://stainsfile.info/StainsFile/dyes/51180.htm Bryan Llewellyn Perry, Margaret wrote: Is there another name for Nile Red? Could it be a florescent dye? I couldn't find it on the Biological Stain commission or in a reference
