It is used to show gliosis in the central nervous system, tumours of skeletal muscles, and fibrin deposits in lesions. Muscle is stained blue-black to dark brown, connective tissue is pale orange-pink to brownish red, fibrin and neuroglia stain deep blue, coarse elastic fibers show as purple, and bone and cartilage obtain yellowish to brownish ...
The H&E staining procedure is the principal stain in histology [3] [7] [2] [5] in part because it can be done quickly, [7] is not expensive, and stains tissues in such a way that a considerable amount of microscopic anatomy [9] [10] is revealed, [7] [5] [4] and can be used to diagnose a wide range of histopathologic conditions.

Hematoxylin staining shown as "basophilic" at top, seen with dual staining with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E). Haematoxylin stain is commonly followed (or counterstained) with another histologic stain, eosin. [10] [11] [1] When paired, this staining procedure is known as H&E staining, and is one of the most commonly used combinations in histology.
Mouse skin stained with Masson's trichrome stain. Masson's trichrome is a three-colour staining procedure used in histology . The recipes emerged from Claude L. Pierre Masson 's (1880–1959) original formulation have different specific applications, but all are suited for distinguishing cells from surrounding connective tissue .
Positive histologic stains that aid in the diagnosis of conditions of or affecting the human integumentary system Stain Cell, material, and/or structure(s) stained Condition(s) in which stain is positive Actin-specific enolase: Infantile digital fibromatosis: AE1/AE3: Squamous cell carcinoma: Alcian blue: Lipoid proteinosis Papular mucinosis ...
Van Gieson's stain is a mixture of picric acid and acid fuchsin. It is the simplest method of differential staining of collagen and other connective tissue . It was introduced to histology by American neuropsychiatrist and pathologist Ira Van Gieson .
Dilated peri-tubular capillaries filled with sickled RBCs, original Gomori's trichrome stain, × 400. [1] The "ragged red fibers" in MELAS syndrome are visible under modified Gomori stain. Gömöri trichrome stain is a histological stain used on muscle tissue. [2] [3] It can be used to test for certain forms of mitochondrial myopathy.
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a highly aggressive form of cancer that develops from mesenchymal cells that have failed to fully differentiate into myocytes of skeletal muscle. Cells of the tumor are identified as rhabdomyoblasts. [1]
