[Histonet] Best Carmine stain

[Lee & Peggy Wenk]

If you are looking for glycogen - so a PAS. More sensitive and a deeper 
magenta color than the Best Carmine.

Curious, what is "without water"?
- The Frozen section????? But there's water in the cells, which is what is 
freezing.
- The stain?????? But most stains are made in water (aqueous stains).

Why do you need no water?????

Hello,
Any tips on doing Best Carmine on Frozen sections without water. Can we use 
mucicarmine solution to pick up glycogen in heart muscle?
Thank u,
Kiran
