Tim Morken notes:
I was listening to the Wait Wait Don't Tell Me radio show this weekend and
they had to come up with the derivation of True Blue as a saying. Turns out
it had to do with blue dye colorfastness. Later they would call it Fast Blue
- but that does not convey the later meaning of
Interesting Tim
My true blue story dates from several years back when I was working up some
multiplex IHC staining using 2 HRP substrates.
One was DAB and the second was True Blue Substrate from KPL Labs. It worked
quite nicely, but is alcohol/xylene soluble so one needs only to wash in
Thank you for the great explanation along with a little history :-)
