Description
Hoffman's violet is a specific stain for animal chromosomes, where acids can replace iodinated alcohol to trap the dye on DNA. This method excludes RNA, as post-staining treatment with cold phosphoric acid yields clear chromosomal coloration without cytoplasmic background. It is utilized in cytogenetics and karyotyping for both in vitro chromosome analysis and histological studies.
