Gastric signet ring cell carcinoma histopathology, PAS stain Esophageal candidiasis, PAS stain Liver in glycogen storage disease, PAS stain. PAS staining is mainly used for staining structures containing a high proportion of carbohydrate macromolecules (glycogen, glycoprotein, proteoglycans), typically found in e.g. connective tissues, mucus, the glycocalyx, and basal laminae.
PAS diastase stain is also used to identify alpha-1 antitrypsin globules in hepatocytes, which is a characteristic finding of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency. [2] PAS diastase stain is also used in diagnosing Whipple’s disease , as the foamy macrophages that infiltrate the lamina propria of the small intestine in this disease possess PAS ...
Staining Procedure Digest using a diastase, hyaluronidase, or sialidase procedure; Deparaffinize and hydrate to distilled water; Oxidize in Periodic Acid, 0.5%, 5 minutes and rinse in distilled water; Strain in Coleman's Feulgen, or Schiff's Reagent, 15 minutes and wash in running water to develop the pink color, 10 minutes.
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.

Micromass cultures of C3H-10T1/2 cells at varied oxygen tensions stained with Alcian blue. Alcian blue (/ ˈ æ l ʃ ə n /) is any member of a family of polyvalent basic dyes, of which the Alcian blue 8G (also called Ingrain blue 1, and C.I. 74240, formerly called Alcian blue 8GX from the name of a batch of an ICI product) has been historically the most common and the most reliable member.

A Ziehl–Neelsen stain is an acid-fast stain used to stain species of Mycobacterium tuberculosis that do not stain with the standard laboratory staining procedures such as Gram staining. This stain is performed through the use of both red coloured carbol fuchsin that stains the bacteria and a counter stain such as methylene blue.
Jones' stain, also Jones stain, is a methenamine silver–periodic acid–Schiff stain used in pathology. [1] It is also referred to as methenamine PAS which is commonly abbreviated MPAS . It stains for basement membrane and is widely used in the investigation of medical kidney diseases .
The study also showed that no special techniques were needed to make the staining effective. The dye also does not interfere with PAS or Gram staining. For cytology, Pap-CFW gave a positive response 50 out of 135 times, and for histopathology, it gave a positive response 43 out of 135 for just the CFW stain. The study showed that the staining ...
