: D 2386 (OTTO) Dithiozone, 85% Cas 60-10-6 - used to assess the purity of human pancreatic islet preparations used for transplantation into patients with type diabetes. Dithizone binds zinc ions present in the islet's beta cells, and therefore stains the islets red. Exocrine tissue also present in the preparations does not bind dithizone, and is therefore not stained.
