Operation steps (for reference only)

1. For pollen particles
Take a small amount of pollen and place it on a glass slide. Add an appropriate amount of acetic acid magenta staining solution and mix thoroughly. Immediately cover the slide and stain for 10-30 minutes. Remove excess liquid and observe under a microscope immediately.

2. For animal and plant slicing
Routine processing of slices (such as dewaxing to water), adding an appropriate amount of acetic acid magenta staining solution to stain for 5-20 minutes, rinsing with tap water, sealing, and immediately observing under a microscope.

3. For some fresh plant tissues (such as onion epidermis)
Directly immerse in acetic acid magenta staining solution for 5-20 minutes, rinse with tap water for 2-3 minutes, place on a slide and cover with a cover glass, and immediately observe under a microscope.

[Note]: If the staining effect is not good, please quickly bake back and forth a few times on an alcohol lamp, in order to destroy the chromatin and make the nucleus stain.
