| Product Name | Calcium Deposit Staining Solution, Modified Alizarin Red S Method |
| Catalog No. | RERE-0273 |
| Description | Modified variant of the alizarin red S calcium stain in which Mayer haematoxylin replaces fast green as the counterstain. Calcium deposits appear orange red against blue stained nuclei, so both the mineral pattern and the underlying cellularity can be judged on the same slide. As with the classical method, staining time depends on the calcium content and short exposures favor the detection of small deposits. The kit holds for 12 months refrigerated. |
| Intended Use | Visualization of calcium deposits together with nuclear detail in mineralized specimens |
| Principle / Technology | Alizarin red S chelation colors calcium salts orange red while Mayer haematoxylin stains nuclei blue |
| Specificity | Modified alizarin red S method; Mayer haematoxylin counterstain; calcium deposits orange red; 12 month shelf life |
| Reaction Conditions / Protocol | Stain with the alizarin red S reagent, counterstain with the Mayer haematoxylin component, rinse and mount for microscopy |
| Storage Conditions | 2-8 °C, protected from light |
| Package Specifications | 3 × 50 mL |
| Key Features | Dual readout of mineral and nuclei; counterstain choice suited to bone and cartilage work; refrigerated 12 month storage |
