Product Details
Description
Studies demonstrated that none of the reagents examined showed staining results of the same quality or better than the conventional method with Uranyl Acetate and Pb. However, stains of IBI Labs Blue Platinum EM Stain showed that it is not an alternative for Uranyl Acetate but may be a reasonable substitute according to the structure in question when Uranyl Acetate is unavailable.
Stafety Notes:
IBI Labs Blue Platinum EM Stain is an extremely hazardous product and may cause eye irritation, kidney cancer, severe bone marrow disorders, and affect fertility. In addition, some reports suggest IBI Labs Blue Platinum EM Stain can attack the nervous system.
