Hi All,
I'm not a histotech, so I don't know if this would be the best technique,
but when I did my residency we preferred a combination of Bodian stain
(nerve fibers = black) followed by luxol fast blue (stains myelin blue)
when we really wanted to see nerve fibers well (and to detect
demyelination).
