Product Introduction:
Alcian, also known as alcian blue 8GX, is a conjugated dye of copper titanium cyanine, which was originally used for textile fiber dyeing. When pH value is 2.5, the carboxyl group in the tissue is ionized with a negative charge and forms a salt bond with the cation in alcian blue, then the mucin with carboxyl group (such as proteoglycan / hyaluronic acid and epithelial acid mucin) is well dyed, while the sulfated mucin is poorly dyed. The neutral mucin in gastric mucosa and Brunner gland could not react with alcian blue.
This reagent is one of the components of the DR1077-Alcian Blue Stain Kit, pH 2.5. At pH 2.5, both carboxyl and sulfate ions are ionized, and both carboxylic acid mucin and sulfate mucin can be dyed blue-green.
