[Histonet] Special Stain for Keratin, not IHC

[marjorie lehman]

Hi Jim,
In the third edition of the AFIP manual there are 2 stains for keratin:
Ayoub-Shklar method for keratin and prekeratin and Dane's method for
prekeratin, keratin and mucin. I have used the A-S one and I have also used a
modified Papanicaou. Both are nice -take a bit of tweaking though.

Hello All: 

I was asked if there was a special stain for keratin. Seems that I recall
seeing it once, but can't remember where. 
This is not an immuno stain. A reference or procedure would be appreciated. 

Thanks, 

Jim Burchette
