Schiff's reagent

Place face down in Schiff's reagent (commercially available) for 30 min, in the dark.

What is Schiff's reagent?

(iii) Stain sampled with Schiff's reagent.

Strain in Coleman's Feulgen, or Schiff's Reagent, 15 minutes and wash in running water to develop the pink color, 10 minutes.

After acid hydrolysis in 1 M HCl at 60 C for 6 minutes, explants were stained with Schiff's reagent.

New fuchsine can be used for staining acid fast organism, e.g. by Ziehl-Neelsen stain, and for making Schiff's reagent.

Cells containing abundant VLPs can be readily distinguished in this assay with the light microscope following staining with Schiff's reagent.

DNA briefly exposed to acid takes a certain number of aldehyde (-CHO) groups on board, which are stained purple by Schiff's reagent.

Schiff's reagent - (not to be confused with a shift reagent) a solution of fuchsine (the hydrochloride of rosaniline) decolourised with sulphurous acid.

Material staining positively with periodic acid – Schiff's reagent (PAS), neutral lipid reserves, and acid phosphatase activity have different distributions in the mantle of the two species.

Of the two major types of amorphous matter, one reacted positively and one negatively to periodic acid - Schiff's reagent (PAS), and one was only, and one predominantly, of male origin.

Late-instar larvae of Simulium vittatum Zetterstedt and Gymnopais dichopticoides Wood were stained with Alcian blue at pH 0.5, 2.5, and 3.2, aldehyde fuchsin, and periodic acid – Schiff's reagent to determine the chemical affinities of the glycoconjugates.

Late instars of Aedes aegypti (L.), Aedes implicatus Vockeroth, Culex territans Walker, and Anopheles earlei Vargas were stained with Alcian Blue at pH 0.5, 2.5, and 3.2, aldehyde fuchsin, and periodic acid – Schiff's reagent.
