- Pre-mixed
- Ready-to-use
They offer the convenience and choice of stain intensity. The Epredia™ Gill Hematoxylin series is designed to control over-oxidation. Epredia™ Differentiation is usually not necessary, however Epredia™ Clarifier 1 or a dilute glacial acetic acid rinse should be used with this series of stains. Epredia(TM) Clarifier 1 will eliminate any background staining that may be caused by the use of excess gelatin or other adhesives in the water bath. Epredia™ Clarifier 2 can be used as well, however a shorter immersion time is required. These stains will provide a familiar, consistent, well delineated nuclear stain, are ready to use and do not require dilution. Stain filtering may be needed to remove sheen caused by oxidation or cells shed off of slides in the cytology staining process. All three Gill stains are stable and will not precipitate in colder environments.
Gill 1 (2.0 g/L) is the least intense stain and is most commonly used in cytology and in special stains. (Cat. No. 8400-076, 8400-078)
Gill 2 (4.0 g/L) is a moderately intense stain and is most commonly used in histology, with some limited use in cytology. (Cat. No. 8400-080, 8400-082)
Gill 3 (6.0 g/L) is an intense stain and is exclusively used in histology and also for the staining of plastic sections. (Cat. No. 8400-084, 8400-086)
