Morning Dave,
	Try vol II of Pearse, A.G.E., Histochemistry, Theoretical and
Applied (ed 4) (Analytical Technology), Churchill Livingstone, NY, 1985,
ISBN 0-443-02997-0. (see Table for Heavy metal detection on p. 1002, and
methods from 1012-1026, Brief Refs from 1026-1033.)  

	Mentions 4 Timm, F. articles: 

		1 - 1936 Virchow's Arch, 297, 502
