Jenner's stain consists of a solution in methyl alcohol of the precipitate formed by adding eosine to methylene blue. |
Potassa turns rosolic acid and coralline from an orange-red to a bright red, while it produces no change in eosine. |
Very good results in soap may be obtained by mixing a fast blue, as ultramarine or cobalt blue, with a red as rhodamine or eosine. |
It affords the same reactions as eosine, but its tone is more inclined to an orange. |
The eosine was separated from the oxide of lead by digesting the product for twenty-four hours in very strong alcohol. |
The eosine plate was underexposed, but brought up everything fairly well except the scarlet hat, which came up like black. |
