2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol (DCPIP) is a blue chemical compound used as a redox dye. In Oxidized form DCPIP is blue; whereas in reduced form DCPIP is colorless. The rate of photosynthesis can be measured by the rate at which this dye changes color (is reduced) when exposed to light in a…

2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium Chloride is a redox indicator. In the TTC assay (also known as TTC test or tetrazolium test), TTC is used to differentiate between metabolically active and inactive tissues. The white compound is enzymatically reduced to red TPF (1,3,5-triphenylformazan) in living tissues…

Fast blue B salt is useful for TLC of Aflatoxins. Fast Blue B is a diazonium salt used as a tissue stain.

Calcein is an indicator for the determination of calcium by titration with EDTA. The excitation wavelength and emission wavelength are 495/515 nm. It is suitable for fluorometric determination of calcium. It does not fluoresce in strong alkaline solution, but an intense fluorescence appears in the…

Acriflavine Hydrochloride is a mixture of 3,6-diamino-10-methylacridinium chloride and 3,6-diaminoacridine (approximately an 9 to 1 mixture respectively). Acriflavine Hydrochloride acts as an intercalating dye and also reported to inhibit mitochondriogenesis. It is an antiseptic and has been…

A red, anionic xanthene dye, has been used as a contrast or counter stain to hematoxylin, crystal violet and other nuclear stains, in both plant and animal tissue. Erythrosin B sodium salt is used as a counter stain to hematoxylin, crystal violet and other nuclear stains, in both plant and…
