[Histonet] Sudan Black B for lipofuscin?

From:"McCollough, Carol"

Greetings:

I have been asked to do a Sudan Black B targeting lipofuscin.  I know that lipofuscin can stain using oil red O, but am not familiar with using Sudan Black B for this purpose.  Is it an appropriate stain?  Is there a difference in protocol?

Thanks.

Regards -
Carol
