Eosin Y is a fluorescent compound widely used in the field of microscopy and histology as a stain for highlighting cytoplasmic material, collagen, and muscle fibers in tissue sections. In biological research, it is paired with hematoxylin to perform H&E (hematoxylin and eosin) staining, which is a standard technique for revealing cellular and tissue structures. Eosin Y′s affinity for eosinophilic structures, which are components that tend to have a net positive charge, makes it a vital tool for distinguishing different cell types and morphological features. In addition to its application in staining, Eosin Y is also used in photodynamic research due to its ability to generate singlet oxygen when exposed to light of a specific wavelength. The compound′s fluorescent properties are harnessed in various assays to investigate cell viability, apoptosis, and other cellular functions.
