FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions about HistoFix Bouin Solution

1. What is Bouin’s solution?

Bouin’s solution is a classic histological fixative composed of picric acid, formaldehyde and acetic acid. It is widely used to preserve tissues with high nuclear and structural resolution.

2. What is Bouin’s fixative solution used for?

It serves to accurately preserve the morphology of sensitive tissues such as the testicle, endometrium and bone marrow, as well as being ideal for special stains.

3. What is the composition of Bouin’s fixative?

Bouin’s fixative contains three main components: picric acid (coagulant), formaldehyde (preservative) and acetic acid (refines nuclear details).

4. Does Bouin’s solution interfere with immunohistochemistry?

Yes. Although it offers excellent morphology, the solution can mask epitopes, making it less recommended for immunohistochemistry protocols. For IHQ, neutral buffered formalin is recommended.
