Lugol's Iodine Stain, 500 ml - Each

Lugol's Iodine Stain, also recognized as Lugol Dilute Iodine Solution or Weigert�s Iodine Stain Solution, is a multi-functional reagent used extensively in histology, microbiology, and general laboratory analysis. This versatile solution is meticulously formulated to function as a critical mordant in the Gram staining protocol, where it facilitates the formation of the crystal violet-iodine complex within bacterial cell walls. Beyond microbiology, it serves as a vital component in the Verhoeff-Van Gieson (VVG) stain kit for the visualization of elastic fibers and acts as a definitive indicator for the presence of starch, producing a characteristic deep blue-black reaction.
