Hematoxylin staining method

摘要

The present invention relates to processes for staining biological samples, and in particular to automated processes for staining biological sample with hematoxylin stains. In the processes and systems of the invention, separate hematein and mordant solutions are provided which may be premixed prior to application to a biological sample. This method prevents precipitation common in hematein staining solutions and which fouls automated slide/sample processing equipment.
