OG-6 and Modified OG are ready-to-use cytoplasmic counterstains that stain keratinized cells orange. A well-preserved or fixed slide with adequate exposure to 95% alcohol or a commercial spray fixative is highly recommended for optimal staining results.OG-6 has a specific affinity for keratinized cells and will not stain other cellular constituents. When used in conjunction with EA stains, the end user can expect traditional staining results that are consistent and familiar. Stain filtering is recommended to remove cells shed off of slides in the cytology staining process.
A single chemical agent, dye or solution intended for the artificial colouration of specific target tissue structures, intra/extracellular elements and/or infectious microorganisms, in a clinical specimen, for their subsequent visualization, examination, identification and/or differentiation.
