[Histonet] New Bone vs. Old Bone Stain

[Jessica Riggleman]

Hello,
Can anyone recommend a stain that differentiates new (woven) bone vs. old (lamellar) bone? We are looking for bone growth, and biomaterial was used to facilitate. We are using a rabbit femoral defect and a rabbit PLF model.
Protocols/Input for MMA thin/thick sections and formalin fixed paraffin embedded specimens would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Jessica
