[Histonet] Re: reticulum stain (was semantics?)

[Robert Richmond]

The preferred name for this venerable silver technique is "reticulum
stain". Whatever reticulin is (or was), it isn't all that the
technique demonstrates. I never heard anybody say "reticular stain".

How are people handling the hazmats problems with reticwhatever
stains? Is anybody still using uranyl nitrate?
