Oil Red O Stain Solution in Propylene Glycol, 500 ml - Each

Oil Red O Stain Solution in Propylene Glycol is a high-purity, fat-soluble diazo dye specifically formulated for professional laboratory, scientific, R&D, and manufacturing use. As a specialized histological reagent, Oil Red O is the primary choice for the visualization of neutral triglycerides and lipids in tissue sections. Unlike other solvent-based stains, this formulation utilizes propylene glycol to minimize the dissolution of lipids during the staining process, ensuring a more accurate representation of fatty deposits. It is most frequently utilized on frozen sections, as routine paraffin processing involves alcohols and xylene that would otherwise remove the target lipids. The solution imparts a vivid red-orange color to lipid droplets, providing the high-contrast visualization required for pathological diagnosis and metabolic research.

Key Features & Benefits
