How preper sudan3 solution?

Answer 1

Sudan III: To make 100 ml of Sudan IV staining solution: warm 73.5 ml of

95% ethyl alcohol [C2H5OH] in a warm water bath (hot tap water will do).

Add 0.5 grams of Sudan (III) and stir. Add 75-80 degrees Celsius distilled

water to just below the 100 ml mark; stir. Cool to room temperature; dilute

to 100 ml with distilled water; stir then filter. (Use: biological stain)

Answer 2

Sudan III is a lysochrome (fat-soluble dye) diazo dye used for staining of triglycerides in frozen sections, and some protein bound lipids and lipoproteins on paraffin sections. It has the appearance of reddish brown crystals and a maximum absorption at 507(304) nm.

Sudan III is a dye used for Sudan staining. Similar dyes include Oil Red O, Sudan IV, and Sudan Black B.

Answer 3

Sudan III is a fat soluble dye (lysochrome) used for demonstrating triglycerides in frozen sections, but which may also stain some protein bound lipids in paraffin sections. It is less popular than oil red O as it has a more orange shade.

Answer 4

To prepare a Sudan III solution, dissolve Sudan III dye powder in a suitable solvent like ethanol, isopropanol, or a mixture of alcohol and water. The concentration of the solution will depend on the specific application, but typically ranges from 0.1% to 5%. Ensure the solution is well mixed and filtered if necessary before use.
