Lugol’S Iodine, Buy Histological Stains solutions for Histology, Cytology, Microbiology, Hematology, Biology Lab from TriStains.

Lugol’s Iodine, also known as Lugol’s Solution, is a popular chemical reagent that consists of iodine and potassium iodide dissolved in water. This reagent is a working solution of elemental iodine (I2) as the stoichiometric staining component, potassium iodide (KI), to enhance the solubility of iodine, and distilled water, which creates a stable and viable staining reagent. Lugol’s Iodine is a typical brown colored solution that is due to the existence of iodine and is widely used in labs in biological, medical and industrial applications. It is a general-purpose solution that possesses high staining capability, which makes it appropriate in microscopy, biological studies and water analysis.

Applications

  • Microscopy: Lugol is a popular Iodine stain in light microscopy to stain the nucleus of protozoa and intracytoplasmic organelles. It gives a brown color more visible and contrasted to the cell, which facilitates the microscopic analysis to be placed accurately.
  • Histology – Microbiology: In histological and microbiological analysis, Lugol’s Iodine is used to enhance the contrast and define cellular components, tissues, and microorganisms. It can be applied to the research and diagnostic studies of cellular morphology and microbial structures.

Key features

  • Gives deep brown colour to allow better microscopic examination.
  • Suitable for histology, cytology, microbiology, and biological research.
  • Improves the ability to see nuclei, organelles and microbial structures.
  • Ready-to-use, stable formulation of consistent laboratory work.
  • Routine and advanced multi-purpose reagent.
