  2. Alizarin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alizarin

    Alizarin (also known as 1,2-dihydroxyanthraquinone, Mordant Red 11, C.I. 58000, and Turkey Red[2]) is an organic compound with formula C. 14H. 8O. 4 that has been used throughout history as a red dye, principally for dyeing textile fabrics. Historically it was derived from the roots of plants of the madder genus. [3]

  3. Fluorescence in situ hybridization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescence_in_situ...

    A metaphase cell positive for the bcr/abl rearrangement (associated with chronic myelogenous leukemia) using FISH. The chromosomes can be seen in blue. The chromosome that is labeled with green and red spots (upper left) is the one where the rearrangement is present. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a molecular cytogenetic technique ...

  4. Orcein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orcein

    Orcein is a reddish-brown dye, orchil is a purple-blue dye. Orcein is also used as a stain in microscopy to visualize chromosomes, [10] elastic fibers, [11] Hepatitis B surface antigens, [12] and copper-associated proteins. [13] Orcein is not approved as a food dye (banned in Europe since January 1977), with E number E121 before 1977 and E182 ...

  5. Fluorescence imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescence_imaging

    Fluorescence imaging is a type of non-invasive imaging technique that can help visualize biological processes taking place in a living organism. Images can be produced from a variety of methods including: microscopy, imaging probes, and spectroscopy. Fluorescence itself, is a form of luminescence that results from matter emitting light of a ...

  6. Fluorescein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescein

    Fluorescein is an organic compound and dye based on the xanthene tricyclic structural motif, formally belonging to triarylmethine dyes family. It is available as a dark orange/red powder slightly soluble in water and alcohol. It is widely used as a fluorescent tracer for many applications. [1]

  7. Tyrian purple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrian_purple

    The dye is an organic compound of bromine (i.e., an organobromine compound), a class of compounds often found in algae and in some other sea life, but much more rarely found in the biology of land animals. This dye is in contrast to the imitation purple that was commonly produced using cheaper materials than the dyes from the sea snail. [2]

  8. Streamlines, streaklines, and pathlines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streamlines,_streaklines...

    The group of streamlines enclose the green curves ( and ) to form a stream surface. Streamlines, streaklines and pathlines are field lines in a fluid flow. They differ only when the flow changes with time, that is, when the flow is not steady. [1] [2] Considering a velocity vector field in three-dimensional space in the framework of continuum ...

  9. Prodan (dye) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prodan_(dye)

    Prodan is a fluorescent dye (a naphthalene derivative) used as a membrane probe with environment-sensitive coloration, [6] [7] as well as a non-covalently bonding probe for proteins. [7] Prodan was proposed as a membrane dye by Weber and Farris in 1979. Since then, multiple derivatives have been introduced, such as lypophilic Laurdan ...
