Iron Hematoxylin A and Iron Hematoxylin B stain the nuclei grey to black. Tartrazine Counterstain is applied to provide a contrasting yellow background.This kit is optimized for use on BenchMark Special Stains instruments. The reagents are applied to tissue on microscope slides and mixed over the entire specimen. en
