[Histonet] Special stain for Smooth Muscle Cells

[Geoff McAuliffe]

Milligan's Trichrome is reputed to be excellent. I have not used it but 
colleagues have.
Milligan, M. "A trichrome stain for formalin fixed tissue". Am J. Clin. 
Path., Technical Section 10:184-185, 1946.
If you have a copy of Humason's /Animal Tissue Techniques/ the method is 
there.
