[Histonet] DAB for hemoglobin?

[Martin, Erin]

Good morning all,



I posted yesterday regarding the use of benzidine for the detection of hemoglobin.  My pathologist believes that standard DAB can be used instead of benzidine solution but I can't find any references for using DAB as a hemoglobin stain.  Do any of you fine histo folks do this?



Thank you!

Erin
