[Histonet] Reticulin Stain

[taylor alan]

Hi All

Here in our lab we routinely hand stain reticulin sections. Our preferred choice
is the Gordon and Sweet method. The technique is easy to perform, diffing out
can be easily controlled via the staining microscope and a variety of
counterstains can be used in addition to the usual Neutral Red.

We still prefer to prepare our own in-house solutions and reagents rather than
purchase expensive commercial products. Old fashioned I know! But this is the
common way still in many small, independent UK labs.

Histonet is such a valuable resource. I look forward to reading daily
submissions and comments.
