purified thiazole orange. This RNA dye which can be used for the
analysis of reticulated erythrocytes or platelets used to be available
by Molecular Probes many years ago. The only source we found now is
Aldrich. Approximately 90 % purity, however, does not seem optimal for
a dye which shows non-saturable staining characteristics?
We use RETIC-Count from BD which seems to work just fine.
