The Biological Stain Commission (BSC) is a quality control laboratory that certifies biological dyes for staining cells and tissues. Originally, a single lot of a certified dye was sold to histologists. Today, companies frequently change their lot numbers as part of regulatory efforts. When a certified dye undergoes a lot number change, the BSC must re-certify this dye to verify that it is identical to the one certified earlier. The BSC has improved how these lot changes are monitored using a redesigned BSC certification label. Certification labels always have been issued by the BSC and are attached to every bottle of "BSC certified dye" that is sold. The new BSC certification label has added security features and currently bears both the BSC certification number and the manufacturer batch lot number. The result is improved security and traceability of certified dyes.
生物染色委员会（BSC）是一个质量控制实验室，负责为细胞和组织染色的生物染料进行认证。最初，一批经过认证的染料出售给组织学家。如今，作为监管措施的一部分，公司经常更改其批号。当一种经过认证的染料批号发生变化时，BSC必须重新对该染料进行认证，以验证其与之前认证的染料相同。BSC通过重新设计的BSC认证标签改进了对这些批号变化的监控方式。认证标签一直由BSC发放，并贴在每一瓶销售的“BSC认证染料”上。新的BSC认证标签增加了安全特性，目前同时印有BSC认证编号和制造商批次批号。其结果是提高了认证染料的安全性和可追溯性。
