Q

METHODS OF STAINING (4 GROUPS)

A

● According to the presence of a mordant
● According to the presence of a differentiator
● According to the resultant color of the tissue
● Vital Staining

41
Q

serves as a link or a bridge between the stain and the tissues.

A

Mordant

42
Q

Also known as decolorizer

A

Differentiator

43
Q

According to the resultant color of the tissue (2)

A

○ Orthochromatic staining
○ Metachromatic staining

44
Q

ACCORDING TO THE PRESENCE OF A MORDANT (2)

A

● Direct Staining
● Indirect Staining

45
Q

● Gives color to the sections by using simple aqueous or alcoholic
dye solutions.

A

Direct Staining

46
Q

Example of Direct Staining (1)

A

Methylene Blue

47
Q

● No mordant needed

A

Direct Staining

48
Q

● Even without the use of a
mordant, the stain can still color
the tissue or cells.

A

Direct Staining

49
Q

● Action of dye is intensified by
using a MORDANT.

A

Indirect Staining

50
Q

● Requires mordant

A

Indirect Staining

51
Q

Example of Indirect Staining (1)

A

Hematoxylin

52
Q

ACCORDING TO THE PRESENCE OF A DIFFERENTIATOR
(DECOLORIZER) (3)

A

● Progressive Staining
● Regressive Staining
● Staining Method

53
Q

● One particular example of
staining method that utilizes
progressive staining technique is
H&E
○ H = hematoxylin
○ E = eosin

A

Progressive Staining

54
Q

● Continuous application of dye
● Not differentiate and not
decolorized the tissue

A

Progressive Staining

54
Q

● When dye is taken up by the
tissue, it is NOT decolorized.

A

Progressive Staining

55
Q

● This H&E that applies progressive staining technique, this is the kind of use for frozen sections
○ No decolorization phase

A

Progressive Staining

56
Q

● Requires a differentiator

A

Regressive Staining

57
Q

● Tissue is first overstained, then
afterwards the excess stain is
removed or decolorized from
unwanted parts of the tissue.

A

Regressive Staining

58
Q

● Apply the stains first then use
chemical that will decolorize certain parts that have been
colored before

A

Regressive Staining

59
Q

● Primary Stain = Basic
○ differentiator should be
________ solution

A

Acidic

59
Q

Example: Regressive Staining

A

○ H&E
○ Acid alcohol

60
Q

Differentiator for routine H&E

A

Acid alcohol

61
Q

● Primary Stain = Acidic
○ differentiator should be an
________ solution

A

Alkaline

62
Q

● Color of the dye is the color of the tissue after it is applied
○ Example: Red → Red

A

Orthochromatic Staining

62
Q

● H&E Primary Stain = Hematoxylin (basic stain/dye)
○ differentiator should be
_______

A

Acidic

63
Q

● Whatever the color of the dye is, it is the expected color of the tissue.

A

Orthochromatic Staining

63
Q

“Ortho” means “_______”

A

the same

64
Q

● The color of the dye is different
from the color of the tissue

A

Metachromatic Staining

64
Q

(2) VITAL STAINING

A

● Intravital Staining
● Supravital Staining

65
Q

Selective staining of living cell constituents

A

VITAL STAINING

65
Q

● “Meta” means “_____” and also
“________”

A

after and also change

66
Q

● Color of the dye is not the color of the tissue after it was applied
○ Example: Red → Yellow

A

Metachromatic Staining

67
Q

Intravital Staining (3)

A

○ Lithium
○ Carmine
○ India ink

67
Q

● Injection of dye into any part of
the animal’s body

A

Intravital Staining

68
Q

Natural dye made up of alum and
cochineal dye

A

Carmine

68
Q

■ BEST vital dye (according to
Gregorio’s)

A

Neutral red

68
Q

● Stain is applied immediately after removal of tissue/organ from the body

A

Supravital Staining

68
Q

● We removed the cells from the
body and then outside that is
where we applied the stain

A

Supravital Staining

69
Q

Used in staining fungi

A

India ink

69
Q

Used for the demonstration of
mitochondria (mitochondria =
organelle)

A

Janus Green B

69
Q
