[Histonet] Eosin B solution for H&E

[Bob Richmond]

Gudrun Lang (in Austria) asks:

>>I wonder how widespread the usage of eosin B is in H&E protocols. Is
there a
specific difference in application to Eosin Y?<<

Eosin B is closely related to the more commonly used eosin Y. As the
letters imply, it's Bluish rather than Yellowish.

I've never seen eosin B used in H&E staining protocols, but it certainly
has been.
