Does anyone out there do Masson Trichromes staining on Plastic embedded
kidney sections?

They don't seem to stain too badly with the M Trichrome that we use for our
Paraffin sections, but I can't help wondering if there is a specific method
that deals with the plastic residue surrounding (and possibly obscuring) the
tissue.

This is something new we're trying, so any info would be gratefully
received!

Thanks

Kathy
