Aim:
To get a cell staining protocol that uses non-toxic (kitchen) ingredients
To see if tumeric might stain cells.
1) make pads with cheek cells in saline/1% LMP Agarose
2) make solution of Tumeric in saline (as for Methylene Blue - some powder, not too much!)
3) put a drop of tumeric solution on one patch, methylene blue on another and compare
Is any color visible?
What about after treatments for comet tests??
