Gayle is right, my osteoid stain is for calcified bone GMA sections, it will
not work on decalcified paraffin sections because the bone will stain with
the eosin and there will be not contrast for osteoid.  Sorry, I came on at
the end of the exchange, I should listen to the question before blabbering
out a response.

		Is your stain, the eosin with Von Kossa for decalcified
parafffin
		sections??  That is what she is looking for, not
undecalcified in plastic.
