ABSTRACT
Natural dyes produce an extraordinary
diversity of rich and complex colours as well
unexpected results, making them exciting to
use. Stains are basically dyes that have been
modified for its use in biology. The
commonly used hematoxylin stain is
obtained from logwood (Haematoxylon
campechianum) and is the most important
and widely used dye in histology,
histochemistry, histopathology and cytology.
From the above it is evident that by suitably
adjusting the pH, concentration of the
extract, addition of the mordant and the
duration of the staining protocol can better
the results. Publication date: 01/08/21 https://ijbpas.com/pdf/2021/August/MS_IJBPAS_2021_5565.pdfDownload PDFhttps://doi.org/10.31032/IJBPAS/2021/10.8.5565
