Eosin-Phloxin solution in 2-propanol is a histological staining method mainly used in histology and pathology. In particular, this solution is used to stain acidic (acidophilic) structures such as cytoplasm, extracellular matrix and red blood cells. The use of this stain allows improved visualization of cellular structures and tissue components, enabling precise examination and diagnosis.

The operation of the eosin-phloxin solution in 2-propanol is based on the staining capacity of the two dyes, eosin bluish and phloxin B. The two dyes, eosin bluish and phloxin B, are used in the staining process. Eosin bluish is a red dye that stains acidic structures such as cytoplasm and red blood cells, while phloxin B serves as an additive and enhances the staining of cellular structures and tissue components. The solution consists of a mixture of isopropanol and aqueous base, with isopropanol serving as the primary solvent, allowing the solution to provide optimal penetration and staining of tissue sections.

Eosin-Phloxin solution in 2-propanol is particularly well suited for use in histology and pathology, as it provides accurate staining of acidic structures and offers enhanced visualization of cell structures and tissue components. This staining method can be used in combination with other staining methods, such as hematoxylin staining, to provide comprehensive visualization and analysis of tissue sections. The eosin-phloxin solution in 2-propanol is characterized by its rapid and reliable staining effect as well as its adaptability to different examination requirements, making it a valuable addition to histological and pathological examinations.
