FAQs

1. What is the solubility of Nuclear Fast Red in different solvents?

Nuclear Fast Red is primarily water-soluble, though it may show limited solubility in some organic solvents. For best results, use distilled water for preparation.

2. Can this dye be used with other histological stains?

Yes, Nuclear Fast Red is commonly used in combination with other stains like hematoxylin or eosin for differential staining protocols.

3. What is the recommended storage temperature for this product?

Store the powder at room temperature (15-25?C) in a tightly sealed container, protected from light and moisture.

4. How does this compare to other nuclear stains like hematoxylin?

Unlike hematoxylin which stains blue, Nuclear Fast Red provides red coloration and is often preferred for specific contrast requirements in certain staining techniques.

5. What safety precautions should be taken when handling this dye?

While generally non-toxic, standard laboratory safety measures should be followed including wearing gloves and avoiding inhalation of the powder.
