axon staining

From:Nancy Lemke

Histonetters,
What does everyone suggest as a stain for axons, either IHC or special 
stain?  I want to stain a rat optic chiasm that has been irradiated and 
then treated with a drug.  I plan to serial section the entire area of 
interest and will do an H&E, LFB/CV and want to add an axon stain at 
intervals through the chiasm.  Silver is fine, but I want to know what 
is easiest and cost efficient.  The sections are FFPE.
Thanks,
