[Histonet] silver stain

[Bartlett, Jeanine]

We have never washed specimens between fixation and processing and we do
a lot of silver stains.  We actually receive many of our specimens
already in block form.  What type of silver stains are you asking about
regarding "special things" to be done?

Hello everybody

Is it true, that speciemens thought for silverstains have to be washed
in distilled water between fixation and processing? Are there any
special things to be done before silverstains?

Regards

Barbara, Vienna
