Uranin
Definition:
(n.) An alkaline salt of fluorescein, obtained as a brownish red substance, which is used as a dye; -- so called from the peculiar yellowish green fluorescence (resembling that of uranium glass) of its solutions. See Fluorescein.
Example Sentences:

(3) At an early stage of the disease (6-24 hours) insufficient was uranin fluorescence in blood plasma, but more informative were the changes in adhesive properties of leukocytes the dynamics of lymphocytes (lymphopenia), reticulocytes (reticulocytopenia) and shifts in reticulograms (increased per cent of juvenile forms).
