Histological Stains at a Glance
Jul 01 2009
A new poster of Histological Stains, available free of charge from Olympus, has been produced to help pathologists in the selection of the most suitable stain for various tissue types.
The new poster from Olympus, ‘Histological Stains At a Glance’, clearly shows the properties and applications of 15 common histological stains. The Din A1 poster (594 x 841mm) is an ideal size for easy reference on the laboratory wall and lists stains in alphabetical order, showing both the abbreviated and full names. At-a-glance stain selection is made easy by linking a description of the stains with a list of
the tissue types for which they are used. Micrographs show how the stain should look when correctly used in example tissues and a large map shows the location of these sample tissues in the body. A simple table explains how the stains colour different cell types and sub-cellular structures.
The Olympus Histological Stains poster is designed specifically with the busy pathologist in mind and accompanies Olympus’ leading range of pathology imaging products which includes microscopes, digital cameras and digital virtual microscopy software. Free copies of the Olympus ‘Histological Stains At a Glance’ poster can be obtained by contacting a local Olympus representative or through the website.
