[Histonet] Procedure for SAB & Retic Stains

[Cheasty, Sandra]

Hello everyone,
	We are determining which stains we will do in our lab which receives mostly outpatient biopsies. We don't often do a Retic or Sulfated Alcian Blue 1 or 2 a year) and these are 2 that we are considering sending out. 
Does anyone have a recent procedure for these stains that may be less complicated that the AFIP or Sheehan Hrapchak versions?  There are kits for Retic stain, but the only ones I've found have been very expensive ($500 and up).
Your help and suggestions are much appreciated.
Sandy
