LaBella DTB Strings Advice

I have just bought a set of LaBella DTB strings 45-105 from eBay, & I have just installed them on my Am.Std Precision bass. I just have a couple of questions as this is the first time I've bought this brand & was, always made to think the silk ends were blue. On my set the silk ends are black. Any advice or is this correct thanks in advance.
