Product Introduction:

Schiff Reagent is often used in conjunction with periodic acid, known as PAS staining method. It is mainly used to detect glycogen or other polysaccharide substances in tissues. Periodic acid is an oxidant that can oxidize adjacent diol groups in polysaccharide molecules to dialdehyde groups, which can react with Schiff reagent to form red insoluble complexes.
