Alcian Blue Stain (pH 1.0) Baso Clear Colourful Stains

Alcian blue is the most specific stain to detect acid mucous substances. This anion dye forms an electrovalent bond with acid group. Alcian blue can be used to separate and identify different mucous substances at various pH. At pH 1, Carboxyl group (COOH) was not stained, sulfonic group (OSO3H) is stained; and at pH 2.5, carboxyl group is well stained, but poor stain of sulfate mucus.
