OIL RED O FOR ELECTROPHORESIS is engineered to deliver vivid and precise lipid staining in tissue sections and electrophoresis applications. Its high degree of purity and specialized formulation provide research labs and diagnostic centers with consistent and accurate results vital for both qualitative and quantitative lipid analysis.

Safe Handling and Long-Term Stability

Manufactured to laboratory grade quality, Oil Red O comes with a low lead content (<0.002%) and is stable for up to 5 years under proper storage: below 30C, in tightly closed bottles away from light and moisture. Proper handling-using gloves and eye protection-ensures safety during use, making it both a reliable and secure choice for professional labs.

FAQ's of OIL RED O FOR ELECTROPHORESIS:

Q: How is Oil Red O used in electrophoresis and histological staining?

A: Oil Red O is soluble in isopropanol or ethanol, and is used as a staining dye to selectively color neutral triglycerides and lipids in tissue sections. During electrophoresis, it is typically applied to frozen sections, allowing clear visualization of lipid deposits.

Q: What is the recommended storage condition for Oil Red O?

A: Oil Red O should be stored below 30C in tightly closed containers, protected from both moisture and light, to ensure it maintains its stability and effectiveness throughout its 5-year shelf life.

Q: What safety precautions should be followed while handling Oil Red O?

A: It is important to wear gloves and eye protection while handling Oil Red O. Avoid inhaling its powder or ingesting it, and always handle the dye in a well-ventilated area or under a fume hood.

Q: What sizes and packaging options are available for Oil Red O?

A: Oil Red O is available in bottle packaging, commonly supplied in 25g and 100g sizes, making it suitable for both routine laboratory use and high-throughput applications.

Q: Can Oil Red O be used for other types of staining besides electrophoresis?

A: Yes, aside from electrophoresis, Oil Red O is widely used for histological staining of lipids in frozen tissue sections, aiding in the identification of neutral triglycerides in diagnostic and research settings.

Q: How stable is Oil Red O when stored properly?

A: Oil Red O exhibits excellent shelf stability for up to 5 years when kept under recommended storage conditions-cool, dry, and shielded from light-ensuring consistent performance throughout its lifespan.
