Oil Red O is a fat-soluble dye commonly used to stain lipids and lipid droplets in cells and tissues. It has a strong affinity for neutral triglycerides and lipids, and when applied, it stains these structures red, allowing for their visualization under a microscope. This staining technique is commonly used in histology and cell biology to study lipid metabolism, adipogenesis, and lipid-related diseases such as obesity and fatty liver disease. Oil Red O staining is a valuable tool for researchers studying the accumulation and distribution of lipids within cells and tissues.
