Hematoxylin

Hematoxylin is a widely used hematology dye for staining cell nuclei, often paired with the eosin counterstain in routine tissue staining. The dye binds to negatively charged molecules such as DNA to produce a blue or purple hue. The hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining method is often used in histological analyses of tissue architecture, pathology, cytology, and immunohistochemistry. Varieties of hematoxylin can include antioxidants and stabilizers for optimization and ease of use.
