Abstract:
Objective To find out much more simply prepared, effective and abundant tissue slice dye. Methods Totally 27 kinds of directly used dress dye were tested to make mouse liver slice stained. Among them purple BL and blue B2R made hepatic structure including central vein and hepatic nucleus shown clearly. Then, the heart, kidney and testis slices of mouse were stained by purple BL and blue B2R. Results The solution preparation of Purple BL and blue B2R was just dissolved in distilled water in five minutes, so they were very much simple and time-saving.After the heart, kidney and testis slices of mouse were stained by purple BL and blue B2R,the stained tissue structure including cardiac muscle cross striation, kidney capsule cavity and spermatogenic cells is clear and similar to tissue stained by HE. Conclusion The effective dress dye purple BL and blue B2R are much more simply prepared and abundant than hematoxylin. So, it can be partly replaced by purple BL and blue B2R.
