nigrosin
Nigrosin is a mixture of synthetic black dyes (CI 50415, Solvent black 5) made by heating a mixture of nitrobenzene, aniline and aniline hydrochloride in the presence of a copper or iron catalyst. It is used in microbiology.
Nigrosin was so named because of its intense black colour, which is useful for the negative staining of bacteria.
Sorry to dissapoint, but this is not a racist word, and has nothing to do with niggers. Look it up on wikipedia.

Scientist: No Tyrone. Nigrosin is a dye used for the negative staining of bacteria.
Tyrone: Oh. My bad.
