[Histonet] Bodian

[Tony Reilly]

Hi Helene
 
Have you tried a Bielschowsky instead.  It is widely reported to provide better staining than the Bodian.

Hi
Thanks to every one that sent me Acid Phosphotase procedure for muscle biopsies. I also need some help with the bodian stain, we are not  getting any staining on the slides, we have a procedure that they used years ago and now we can't get it working (we did purchase new chemicals) and we also tried a stain kit with very little results.

Thanks again
