Description
"Periodic Acid-Schiff Stain Kit is a staining kit used to detect carbohydrates, glycogen, basement membranes, and fungus in tissue sections for the diagnosis of general pathology specimens. Periodic acid oxidizes these various tissue moieties to aldehydes, to which Schiff Reagent bonds in its colorless form. Rinsing with water removes the sulfurous acid and restores the Schiff Reagent to its rose-colored form."
