  1. basic dye

    A basic dye is a type of dye that is cationic (positively charged) and is mainly used for dyeing fibers like wool and nylon. It has a high affinity for fibers and is known for its bright color, but may have poorer lightfastness compared to other dyes. They are called ‘basic’ because they are base-loving, i.e., they react with materials that are slightly acidic. They are also used in microbiology for staining cells.
