Contradictory
[edit]First section says use is abandoned, then later it documents that it's still used in histology. 146.191.95.1 (talk) 15:30, 14 October 2022 (UTC)

Congo blue
[edit]The para on Congo blue doesn't seem to have much to do with Congo red— it doesn't even say whether they're related beyond the name. I think it should move into its own article. Marnanel (talk) 11:39, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
