h3403 counter staining
DESCRIPTION
Sorbitol, also known as glucitol, is a sugar alcohol, which the human body metabolizes slowly. It can be obtained by reduction of glucose, changing the aldehyde group to a hydroxyl group. Sorbitol is found in apples, pears, peaches, and prunes.[1] It is synthesized by sorbitol-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and converted to fructose by succinate dehydrogenase and sorbitol dehydrogenase.[1] Succinate dehydrogenase is an enzyme complex that participates in the citric acid cycle.[1]TRANSCRIPT

5. Dehydrate, clear, and mount.
NOTES:Counterstains should be optimized for each tissue type, antigen unmaskingprotocol, and immunocytochemical staining intensity desired.
A precipitate may form in this product over time. This will not affectstaining efficacy. If preferred, product can be filtered immediatelybefore use.
