Basic Fuchsin is a fluorescent dye containing a mixture of rosaniline, pararosaniline, magenta II, and new fuchsine. The basic fuchsin is a cationic triphenylmethane dye used for the detection of acid-fast bacilli and is commonly used in the Ziehl Neelsen staining technique. It stains mucopolysaccharides and glycoproteins. It can also be used to track proteins in acidic pH systems. The basic fuchsin stain acts as a nuclear stain, elastic tissue stain, and mucin stain.

The basic fuchsin dye is dominantly used in staining procedures. It is used for Gomori’s aldehyde-fuchsin method, periodic acid Schiff method, and in Endo medium to distinguish E.coli from K.aerogenes bacteria. The basic fuchsin is also employed as a counter-stain in Gram’s staining.
