A rapid myelin stain for frozen sections: modification of the Heidenhain procedure

B Hutchins et al. J Neurosci Methods. 1983 Mar.

Abstract

A protocol has been established for the staining of myelin in frozen sections. While the new method is relatively fast and simple, it eliminates the problems routinely encountered with myelin stains such as blotchiness and uneven staining. Modifications were introduced into the procedures in order to obtain excellent fiber staining results on a wide variety of tissue.
