[Histonet] Fibrin and Myoglobin Stains

[Etheridge, Sandra AGF:EX]

Hello fellow Histonetters,

I work in an provincial animal health monitoring lab (mostly agricultural
animals) and one of the pathologists was asking if there were specific
special stains for fibrin and myoglobin.  We currently use PTAH for fibrin
and muscle fibers, and Okajima for hemoglobin and myoglobin.  Does anyone
else know of more specific stains for these two constituents?  I can't seem
to find much in the limited reference library here.

Thanks for the help.
