[Histonet] need help finding a Luna Stain procedure

[Amy Porter]

Andi - We do a Luna's stain for eosinaphils in our lab.  It is from the most recent armed forces publication.  It involves using Biebrich Scarlet and Weigerts Hematoxylin.  I am out of the office until Thursday.  I would be happy to post something for you then or email you off list. Let me know.

I'm looking for the procedure to do a Luna stain. We have some skin samples 
probably with sun damage and we want to look at the grenz zone in them.
A Luna stain for elastin was discussed in April, 03 on histonet but a 
search of the archives did not turn up the procedure. I found a Gomori 
Aldehyde Fuchsin/Trichrome by Lee Luna and Darryl Luna in an old HistoLogic 
but I'm not sure that this is the same stain.
Thanks.
