Dyeing agent having at least two dyes for staining a biological sample and staining method employing the dyeing agent

摘要

Dyeing agents which are excellent in visual recognition of discernible or tangible components in a sample cause no coagulation of proteins, sugars or glycoproteins dissolved in the sample. An apparatus for image analysis of flow type stain particles uses the dyeing agents, and particles of discernible components suspended in a flowing sample can be detected so that images of the particles can be efficiently photographed and the discernible components can thus be analyzed by image processing of the thus-obtained image.
