General description

Most mucins contain serveral glycoproteins and can therefore be detected by stains for carbohydrates. Best carmine stain is specifically used for glycogens. Mucicarmine is an empirical stain. When applied for fungal staining, it stains the spores and hyphae as pale to dark red.

    1 answer
    1. Formulation 41325 contains carmine (1 g), aluminum chloride (0.5 g), and water (2 ml). On the other hand, the formulation for HT3018 consists of certified carmine (10 g/L), aluminum hydroxide (10 g/L), and aluminum chloride (5 g/L) in ethanol (50% w/v), following Southgate's modification of Mayer's mucicarmine procedure. Dilution instructions for use are provided, indicating the need to dilute product 41325 with either 10 volumes of distilled water or preferably 50-70% alcohol just before use.
