Hematoxylin solution modified acc. to Gill II - for microscopy, is used for human-medical cell diagnosis and serves the purpose of the cytological and histological investigation of sample material of human origin. It is a ready-to-use staining solution that when used together with other in vitro diagnostic products from our portfolio makes cytological target structures evaluable for diagnostic purposes in human gynecological and clinico-cytological specimen materials, for example cervical smears. In hematoxylin-eosin staining (H&E), the most widely used histological staining technique, nuclear staining is achieved using ready-to-use staining solutions, such as Mayer′s hemalum solution or Hematoxylin solution modified according to Gill II or Gill III. The dye is oxidized in a controlled manner, which renders the results robust and allows a brilliant differentiation of the stained structures. Counterstaining of i.e. for proteins, collagen, keratin, intercellular substances can be performed with alcoholic or aqueous Eosin Y solution 0.5 %.These solutions do need to be filtrated prior use. A 500 ml bottle is sufficient for 1500 - 2500 slides. It is registered as IVD and certified as CE product. For more details, please see instructions for use (IFU).
