Fluorescein (CI no. 45350)
Fluorescein (CI# 45350) is a fluorescent dye used in medical diagnostics, histology and scientific laboratories. Its use encompasses a variety of applications where rapid and accurate visualization of structures is required.
Chemically, fluorescein is a xanthene dye that fluoresces under UV or blue light and emits green light. The characteristic fluorescence of fluorescein allows specific structures in biological samples to be highlighted and distinguished.
The application of fluorescein in histology involves the staining of tissue samples to visualize specific cell structures or antigens. In medical diagnostics, fluorescein is used in ophthalmology, for example, to visualize the tear film or damage to the cornea. In scientific laboratories, fluorescein can be used to label biomolecules, such as DNA or proteins, to study their distribution and dynamics in cells.
