Periodic Acid, 1%

Periodic Acid, 1%, Buy TriStains Solutions for Histology, Cytology, Microbiology, Hematology & Biology Lab from TriStains at Chemical World.

Periodic Acid, 1% is an aqueous solution laboratory reagent that is also known as Orthoperiodic Acid, colorless, odorless and transparent. This formula is 1 percent periodic acid (HIO4) in water and it is generally accepted that this reagent plays a very important role in histological as well as in histochemical staining procedures. It is a solution used in Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS) staining and is also included in some specific staining kits such as P.A.S., Alcian Blue-P.A.S., P.A.S.M. / Jones, Grocott, and Weigert-Van Gieson.

Applications

  • Periodic Acid 1% is widely used in the histology and histopathology laboratories.
  • The aqueous 1% solution oxidizes certain elements in tissues to aldehydes before the use of the Schiff reagent.
  • Periodic Acid stain aids in fungal organism identification of tissue sections.
  • PAS reaction is especially applicable in the demonstration of mucopolysaccharides and carbohydrate-rich structures in tissues.

Key features

  • Serves as a strong oxidizing agent: Very good in histological oxidation reactions.
  • Provides effective and stable staining: Can be used with several PAS-based staining procedures.
  • Gives reproducible staining: Maintains precision and reproducibility of various laboratory processes.

General Description

Periodic Acid, 1% is a laboratory-grade reagent that is designed to be used in histology and histopathology. Carbohydrate residues present in tissue sections are oxidized to give reactive aldehydes through their oxidizing ability. These aldehydes are then reacted with Schiff reagent to create a bright magenta color and allow easy visualization of the mucopolysaccharides, fungal elements and other complexes containing aldehydes.
