Mayer s paracarmine

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in Germany

Mayer's paracarmine is a laboratory staining reagent used in histology and cytology for the visualization of nuclei and other cellular structures. It is a form of carmine dye that is used to stain tissues and cells, providing contrast for microscopic examination. The core function of Mayer's paracarmine is to facilitate the identification and analysis of cellular components through staining.

Morphological Analysis of Parasite Specimens

The specimens were stained with Mayer’s paracarmine (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany), dehydrated in an ethanol series, cleared in methyl salicylate and mounted in Canada balsam for morphological analysis. Specimens were then examined using a compound microscope equipped with a bright field (Leica DM 1000 LED microscope, Leica, Wetzlar, Germany). Measurements were taken using Leica Application Suite microscope software (Leica Microsystems GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany) and are given in micrometres as range followed by mean in parentheses. Some specimens from each locality were dehydrated in ethanol series, critical-point dried, sputter coated with gold, and examined with a Hitachi Stereoscan Model S-2469N scanning electron microscope operating at 15 kV. Adults and metacercariae were deposited in the Colección Nacional de Helmintos (CNHE) of the Instituto de Biología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), México City (CNHE. No. 12063–12066).

Staining and Microscopic Analysis of Digeneans

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Digeneans preserved in 100% ethanol were stained with Mayer's paracarmine (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany), dehydrated in ethanol series, cleared in methyl salicylate and mounted in Canada balsam for morphological analysis. Specimens were examined using a compound microscope equipped with a bright field Leica DM 1000 light emitting diode microscope (Leica, Wetzlar, Germany). Measurements were taken using Leica Application Suite microscope software (Leica Microsystems GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany) and are given in micrometres and presented with the range followed by the mean in parentheses. Some specimens were dehydrated with an ethanol series, critical point dried, sputter coated with gold and examined with a Hitachi Stereoscan Model S-2469N scanning electron microscope operating at 15 kV. Voucher specimens from the present study were deposited in the Colección Nacional de Helmintos (CNHE) from Instituto de Biología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), Mexico City.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
