[Histonet] oil red o & phrases

Nope, spot on. The difference is British vs. the purer form of English we know over on this side of the puddle. This difference possibly comes from days spent as a youth in British Public Schools.

The ending "er" in English denotes a person (or thing) who/which does an

action.  To "bug" is a colloquial expression meaning to irritate, so a 
"bugger" (the letter g is doubled to preserve the short vowel sound)
would 
be someone (or something) who irritates someone else.  Is there another 
meaning?

"Quite a bugger" I quote.

Do you know what one is? It doesn't seem to fit the context in which you
are using it. Are you using it as a noun or a verb?

I'm sure you aren't talking about Sally.

Make sure that you are not pressing (at all!) on your coverslip, even to
get
out air bubbles. The ORO will come right out of the fat cells. Quite a
bugger.

I am trying to locate a protocol for a consistant Oil red O stain. I
don't
know if it is in coverslipping where the stain is moving off the fat
cells
or in my differentiation step. I am staining on frozen skeletal muscle
sections. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you,

Sally
