Stains

Hurst Scientific is an Australian manufacturer of laboratory stains and solutions. Our products include a variety of stains and other essential instruments used in manual or automated staining processes.

Microscopy stains are used to enhance the visualisation of cells under a microscope, allowing for the classification of cells according to their morphology. Stains can also be used to highlight metabolic processes within cells and to determine whether cells are living or dead.

Hurst Scientific has stains in basic dyes including methylene blue, malachite green, crystal violet and safranin, which allow cells to be easily seen. Methylene blue is commonly used to visualise samples of DNA. We also have Eosin stains, which are used in histology to colour red blood cells, and Bismarck brown for staining tissues yellow.
