[Histonet] McMannas PAS Light Green

[Joe Nocito]

Matt,
we perform a PAS/Fungus on all toenails we gross (hence Joe the Toe). The 
doctors I work for like out light green strong. I can't count how many times 
they kicked back trays of slides that weren't stained dark enough. We have a 
TissueTek stain line that we use for our special stains. We have an extra 
container filled with 95% ETOH we use to rinse off the Fast Green. Every 
time we did a quick rinse in water, the green always washed out. Personally, 
the magenta color with the dark green just curls my toes up. I'm thinking of 
painting my living room with those colors.
