Hi all,

I am reposting this as I am not sure that it was sent, I certainly got no 
replies.

I am posting this for a fellow researcher who is looking for a 
technique/reference to stain nerves in unfixed, fresh bone.

Does such a technique exist? The researcher is currently doing methylene 
blue supravital staining, but this seems to produce a lot of background (ie 
the  bone is staining as well as the nerves) and is therefor not ideal.

Any and all suggestions welcome

TIA
