Clitoria ternatea is a natural colorant that has an anthocyanin content and produces blue pigment and has been tested to color the nucleus of epithelial cells. Method: This research for the influence of temperature factors and long storage of the solution of clit extract as a nutarl colour subtitutes for methylene blue in the coloring of nucleus cells diffquick method. Research design is experimental with purposive sampling. The research was conducted in January-March 2024 at the sitohistotechnology laboratory.
