(BASIC) FUCHSIN
Code: BR0050
Description
BR0050 should be dissolved to create a 10% w/v solution using 95% ethyl alcohol.
For each litre of culture medium use the amount described in the product reconstitution details. This should be in a 10% w/v solution of the dye dissolved in 50:50 ethanol/distilled water. E.g. For CM0479 add 6ml of a 10% w/v Basic Fuchsin solution per litre of medium.
The magenta dyes are closely related to known carcinogenic substances; therefore basic fuchsin should be handled with care, avoiding inhaling the powder or staining the skin with dye.
