Hello everyone,
I want to stain live and dead cells in a fresh tissue. There are a large variety of stains (i.e, PI, cell tracker, FDA, DAPI). As long as I know, the should not be exposed to light. The pathology facility I work with, does not have a dark environment( the samples would be exposed to light). Can you recommend a staining agent that does not degrade in light exposure?

Dear John Griffin ,
Thanks for your explanation.
I have another question, do you think I can use live cell stains (such as CTG), fix them and send them to pathology? Is there any possibility that the fixation solution wash away the stains?
