Because of intrinsic difficulties and no special advantages, I switched many
years ago to the Modified-Steiner method, a much simpler and consistent
technique. If you don't have some pathologist unreasonably unwilling to
accept anything but WS, switch also. I think it is better to have always
good results, instead of struggling with a technique that eventually will
delay the slides to be presented to the pathologist.

Hi Histonet,
Does anyone out there uses Warthin-Starry Stain, If so, Can you help me with
troubleshooting, my slides get overstained even though i respect the
developing time that is in the procedure which is 3.5min.
thank you in advance and your help will be very much appreciated!
