Product Description
Hematoxylin Monohydrate (Natural Black I) is a widely used dye in histology labs for staining cell nuclei. Derived from the heartwood of the logwood tree, this natural compound binds to acidic components in cell nuclei, producing a deep blue-black stain that contrasts sharply with eosin-stained cytoplasm. Researchers and pathologists rely on it for clear, consistent results in tissue analysis.
At eqipped, we ensure this product meets stringent purity standards, making it suitable for both routine diagnostics and advanced research. Whether you’re setting up a new lab or restocking, our Hematoxylin Monohydrate offers reliability and performance.
