[Histonet] ORO

[Gayle Callis]

The Churukian method is not expensive compared to the classic method using 
propylene glycol (expensive and messy).  A grossly thick cross section of 
arterial plaque would not be an unreasonable sample to stain with ORO.  If 
anyone is interested in the Churukian method, published in JOH a few years 
back, I will be happy to attach privately.
