Prussian Blue - Eosin Staining Kit Prussian blue - Eosin staining kit Cat.No.:E670108 Package:100 Test /500 Test Description Hemoglobin (hemosiderin) is a hemoglobin-derived pigment, golden yellow or brown particles, because of its iron, golden yellow, it is called hemosiderin. When red blood cells are phagocytosed by macrophages, hemoglobin is broken down into iron-free orange blood and iron-containing hemosiderin under the action of lysosomal enzymes. Perls Prussian blue reaction (Prussian blue reaction), also known as hemosiderin staining, that is, after treatment of potassium ferrocyanide and dilute acid can produce blue, common in phagocytes or interstitial, the main display of ferric salt. Perls Prussian blue is a very classical histochemical reaction that is a sensitive, traditional and excellent method of displaying ferric iron in tissues. The staining principle is that potassium ferrocyanide makes the ferric ion from the protein diluted with hydrochloric acid Isolated, ferric iron and potassium ferrocyanide reaction to generate a blue insoluble compound that ferric ferricyanide Prussian blue, so the reaction is called Prussian blue reaction. Ferrous iron ferrocyanide is a very stable compound, after the reaction can be red dye staining, such as nuclear red, eosin, such as neutral red. Prussian blue staining reagents commonly used to show a variety of hemorrhagic lesions within the local tissue, common in phagocytes. In determining the hemosiderin deposition, Perls reaction can be confirmed, the staining method can be a good distinction between hemosiderin and other pigments. The dyeing liquid has good stability, can be stored for a long time, is not easy to produce precipitation, has a wide range of applications, can be counterstained. Prussian blue - eosin staining kit, the dye solution using eosin staining solution, is also commonly used in the dye solution, the dye solution staining time than the nuclear solid red stain to be shorter.

It has been reported in viral infection, but is also possible in systemic autoimmunity. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is the current gold standard for non-invasive detection of suspected inflammatory damage to the heart and changes in T1 and T2 relaxation times are commonly used to detect edema associated with immune cell infiltration and fibrosis. These measurements also form the basis of the Lake Louise Criteria, which define a framework for the CMR-based diagnosis of myocarditis. However, they do not take into account the possibility of hemorrhage leading to tissue iron deposition which strongly influences T1 and T2 measurements and may complicate interpretation based on these two parameters only.

  • Brain – Pigment
    Brain – Pigment Figure Legend: Figure 1 Pigment. A site of former hemorrhage (arrow) in the corpus callosum in a female F344/N rat from a chronic study. Multiple brown-pigmented hemosiderin-laden macrophages are present. Comment: Various forms of pigment, such as yellow-golden ceroid/lipofuscin and dark brown hemosiderin, are deposited in the brain sometimes as part of the aging process or metabolic abnormalities. Ceroid/lipofuscin autofluoresces at 365 nm wavelength, and periodic acid Schiff stain highlights the deposits. The normal iron content of hemosiderin can be detected as blue to purple particles using Perls Prussian blue stain. The presence of hemosiderin-laden macrophages indicates prior neural injury with associated hemorrhage resulting in macrophage phagocytic degradation of extravasated red blood cells and their hemoglobin content. Figure 1 (arrow) shows multiple brown-pigmented hemosiderin-laden macrophages present in the corpus callosum suggesting previous hemorrhage. Recommendation: The presence of pigments (type of pigment need not be specified in the diagnosis), their severity grading, and anatomic subsite location should be documented in NTP studies. Definitive pigment identification is often difficult in histological sections, even with a battery of special stains. Therefore, it is recommended that a diagnosis of pigment (as opposed to diagnosing the type of pigment, e.g., hemosiderin or lipofuscin) is most appropriate. The pathology narrative should describe the morphological features of the pigmentation. Not all pigments have to be diagnosed, as some are ubiquitous in aging animals or related to some 1 Brain – Pigment other disease process and are not toxicologically meaningful. The pathologist should use his or her judgment in deciding whether or not secondary deposits of pigment are prominent enough to warrant a separate diagnosis.

  • Dye Origins Hematoxylin Is Extracted from the Logwood Tree and Purified. It Is Then Oxidized and Combined with a Mordant (Typica
    Dye Origins Hematoxylin is extracted from the logwood tree and purified. It is then oxidized and combined with a mordant (typically aluminum) to allow it to bind to the cell structures. Of the many hematoxylin preparations used in histology Gill’s hematoxylin, Harris's hematoxylin and Mayer's hematoxylin are the most popular. Eosin is formed by a reaction between bromine and fluorescein. There are two eosin variants typically used in histology: eosin Y which is slightly yellowish and eosin B which is slightly bluish. Eosin Y is most popular. Special Stains The term special stains traditionally referred to any staining other than an H&E. It covers a wide variety of methods that may be used to visualize particular tissue structures, elements, or even microorganisms not identified by H&E staining. Other methods of staining use immunohistochemistry or in situ hybridization to target specific proteins or DNA/RNA sequences. These methods were sometimes also included as members of the “special stains” family. However, they are quite different in method and purpose and are now typically separated into a third category known as “advanced stains”. While there are literally hundreds of special stains for all manner of purposes, only a few are used with any regularity in clinical histology. The variety of stains also means that special staining is not as automated as H&E staining. While many larger laboratories do use automated instruments for the more common stains, they still have an area for hand staining. The complexity of some stains also works against the uses of automation. Some Common Special Stains.
