Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a hematoxylin staining solution and a preparation method and a staining method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Hematoxylin is a natural, basic dye with a molecular formula of C 16 H 14 O6, molecular weight 302.288. It is mainly extracted from the core of a tree called "hematoxylon campechianum" native to Central and South America. Hematoxylin itself has no chromophore and does not have staining properties. It needs to be naturally or artificially oxidized and matured into hematoxylin red before it has staining effectiveness. Hematoxylin staining solution is the most commonly used staining solution in histochemistry and immunohistochemistry. It is used in combination with eosin staining solution, referred to as HE staining method, which is the most widely used technical method in histology, embryology, and pathology. Hematoxylin staining solution is a key reagent in the HE staining process, and its quality determines the quality of a stained slide.

[0003] At present, the most commonly used hematoxylin staining solutions are Harris hematoxylin staining solution, Mayer hematoxylin staining solution and Gill hematoxylin staining solution. The formula and staining process are the same, but the advantages and disadvantages are also different. For example, Harris hematoxylin staining solution has the advantages of being ready for use, short staining time, and bright colors, but the disadvantages are that the use cycle is short and the replacement frequency is high when the number of stained slides is large; there is a metal-like peroxide film floating on the surface of the liquid, or there is a dark brown oxide, which contaminates the slides; the mercuric oxide in the formula is almost insoluble in water and is highly toxic, polluting the environment and endangering the health of the staff. The advantage of Mayer hematoxylin staining solution is that it does not need to be boiled during preparation, does not contain mercuric oxide, and does not require differentiation; but its slide staining time is slightly longer than Harris hematoxylin staining solution. The advantage of Gill hematoxylin staining solution is that it uses sodium iodate instead of mercuric oxide, which reduces pollution and requires differentiation, but the disadvantages are that the coloring of the cell nucleus is not bright enough, the reagent usage time is short, and the coloring ability is not balanced enough. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a hematoxylin staining solution and a preparation and use method thereof in view of the problems that the hematoxylin staining solution in the prior art has poor staining effect, long staining time and complicated staining operation steps.

[0323] The optical microscopic structure of tissues and cells is blurred, and the clarity of the staining of cell nuclei and patina in a large number of staining slides is not high, making it difficult to analyze cell results well.

[0324] It can be seen that the hematoxylin staining solution provided by the present invention uses hematoxylin, anhydrous ethanol, potassium aluminum sulfate, sodium iodate, glacial acetic acid and water as raw materials. By targetedly adjusting the ratio of each raw material and strictly controlling the amount of each raw material, it is unexpectedly found that after the hematoxylin staining solution provided by the present invention is used to stain tissue sections, the cell nuclei are well colored and the tissue structure is clear. The tissue sections after counter-staining with eosin are bright in color and have a strong contrast, which is easy to observe. The staining effect is ideal, the staining stability is high, and it is not easy to fade, which is beneficial to the long-term preservation of the sections, and unexpected effects have been achieved.
