andTrichrom e Staining
Importance: High

 Hello All:

Can anyone suggest an alternative to Weigert's Iron Hematoxylin for
nuclei
staining with Mucin and Trichrome protocols? I have some standard
hematoxylin (7211) that I will be using for my routine staining.
However,
with the shortage, Weigerts is on backorder until October.
