Description

StatLab MasterTech Van Gieson's Stain - used to differentiate between collagen and other tissue elements in microscopic sections

  • Stain is a combination of two acidic dyes: picric acid and acid fuchsin, which produce distinct coloration that aids in the visualization of connective tissue
  • The stain is particularly useful for differentiating collagen fibers from muscle and cytoplasm, making it valuable in diagnosing fibrosis, vascular diseases, and connective tissue disorders
  • The staining mechanism is based on the affinity of tissue components for different dyes based on their chemical properties, with collagen fibers appearing red and muscle fibers and cytoplasm appearing yellow
  • This differential staining is crucial for evaluating fibrosis and tissue remodeling in diseases and is used in histopathology, biomedical research, and diagnostic pathology
  • A MasterTech Special Stain Kit Component
