About Azur II Eosine for Microscopy
Azure II is efficacious for the microscopy, and is a mix of azure I and methylene blue. The dye is primarily used for the staining of blood elements. In the watery mixture, it makes special salts with acid eosin, the eosinates. It's a modified solution for the staining. Azure II eosin is the main ingredient of Giemsa stain. Its equivalent name is Azure eosin methylene blue. It is effective for staining blood smears, staining procedures, etc. And the stained elements appear pink to purplish to blue. We develop excellent quality of Azur II Eosine for the Microscopy. Imparting color to tissues or cells, it facilitates microscopic examination and identification. Also, we help ensure quantitative and qualitative changes in solutions.
