Acid Fuchsine - Erythrosine Solution
The acid fuchsin-erythrosine solution is widely used in histology, especially in the meat industry. It is an integral part of the so-called Charvat trichrome staining, which is used to show the differences between muscle meat and connective tissue in meat products with high contrast.
The specific suitability of this solution is evident from the attachment of the dyes to different types of tissue. While acid fuchsin binds to collagen fibers and muscle tissue and produces a dark purple color, erythrosin B stains the cytoplasm pink. These color differences facilitate differentiation between muscle and connective tissue, which is critical in the quality control of meat products.
The binding of dyes to tissue occurs through ionic interactions and hydrogen bonds. These reversible processes make the acid fuchsin-erythrosine solution an indispensable tool in histological examinations and meat quality control.
