[Histonet] rhodanin stain fading

[Gudrun Lang]

Hi!

Yesterday I did a rhodine stain for copper. Immediatly after staining I saw
not many but distinct red granula in hepatocytes. 

I am new to this stain, so I was happy (and a little bit proud), that it had
worked.

I also stained one slide over night for comparison. Today morning the first
stained slides has faded and not the smallest bit of red colour could be
seen.

 

Is this a common problem? What causes the fast fading?
