Modified Phenol Magenta Staining Solution is also known as Carbol Fuchsin Staining Solution or Modified Carbonate Magenta Staining Solution, which has similarities with Magenta Acetate, which is a commonly used alkaline dye for staining of nuclei, fixing and staining of chromosomes, which is often used for observing chromosome morphology during cell division, and also used for staining of chromosomes. Magenta acetate can also be used for chromosome staining. Although the staining effect is better, there is the problem that the staining takes longer time.

Modified Phenol Magenta Staining Solution is commonly used in plant tissues for pressing and smearing method, the staining solution is stable, adopting improved formula and adding lining agent to make the staining effect better, it is mainly used for chromosome staining such as somatic chromosome and meiosis staining, and it is a very good staining agent for cell nucleus and mitochondria.
