[Histonet] staining collagen

[Lobke De Bels]

Von Gieson gives a good contrast for the human eye, but the computer can't make
a difference between yellow/orange and red.
If I only use acid fushine (or aniline) everything stains pink(blue).

I have to find a way to stain the connective tissue so the computer can clearly
make a difference between connective tissue and the other tissue.

The ideal should be a method that only stains collagen.


Many thanks in advance for any help
