Positive histologic stains that aid in the diagnosis of conditions of or affecting the human integumentary system Stain Cell, material, and/or structure(s) stained Condition(s) in which stain is positive Actin-specific enolase: Infantile digital fibromatosis: AE1/AE3: Squamous cell carcinoma: Alcian blue: Lipoid proteinosis Papular mucinosis ...
The H&E staining procedure is the principal stain in histology [3] [7] [2] [5] in part because it can be done quickly, [7] is not expensive, and stains tissues in such a way that a considerable amount of microscopic anatomy [9] [10] is revealed, [7] [5] [4] and can be used to diagnose a wide range of histopathologic conditions. [8]
These structures contain many positive charges and are thus strongly stained by anionic dyes like eosin. A typical combination of basophilic and eosinophilic dyes is the H&E stain, which visualizes basophilic structures in blue and eosinophilic structures in red. [1]
It is used to stain collagen. If blue is preferred to green, methyl blue or water blue can be substituted. Standard applications: Masson's trichrome staining is widely used to study muscular pathologies (muscular dystrophy), cardiac pathologies , hepatic pathologies or kidney pathologies (glomerular fibrosis). It can also be used to detect and ...
Micromass cultures of C3H-10T1/2 cells at varied oxygen tensions stained with Alcian blue. Alcian blue (/ ˈ æ l ʃ ə n /) is any member of a family of polyvalent basic dyes, of which the Alcian blue 8G (also called Ingrain blue 1, and C.I. 74240, formerly called Alcian blue 8GX from the name of a batch of an ICI product) has been historically the most common and the most reliable member.

Merkel cell. Merkel cells are found in the skin and some parts of the mucosa of all vertebrates. In mammalian skin, they are clear cells found in the stratum basale [2] [3] (at the bottom of sweat duct ridges) of the epidermis approximately 10 μm in diameter.
In histology, histopathology, and clinical pathology, Perls Prussian blue is a commonly used method to detect the presence of iron in tissue or cell samples. [ 1 ] : 235 [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Perls Prussian Blue derives its name from the German pathologist Max Perls (1843–1881), who described the technique in 1867. [ 2 ]
Mallory's trichrome stain also called Mallory's Triple Stain is a stain utilized in histology to aid in revealing different macromolecules that make up the cell. It uses the three stains: aniline blue, acid fuchsin, and orange G. As a result, this staining technique can reveal collagen, ordinary cytoplasm, and red blood cells. It is used in ...
