[Histonet] silver stain

[Margaret Blount]

Use very clean glassware and good quality distilled water and reagents. I
have never washed in DW between fixation and processing but do wash your
sections in distilled water prior to staining. It can't hurt to wash the
samples in DW after fixation either.

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
