Basic fuchsin = anilin red = basic rubin = magenta. Is the tri-amino triphenyl methane dyes mixtures of pararosanilin (CI 42500), rosanilin (CI42510) and magenta II in varying proportions.
  Yes, you can use it.

  Dear all, 

I would like to try using the Leder stain for mast cells. Before I buy pararosaniline, which is not available in our lab, I wanted to ask if it is possible to use Basic Fuchsin (which we do have) instead?

Thanks in advance for your advice,
