Re: Movat's pentachrome stain

Many years ago (at least 20) the Histochemist at our Institute in collaboration with his scientist perfected the best modified Movat Technique I have ever used. However, it went out of use as we lost the one Dermatopathologist who used it and it has not been used since.

It was published in Stain Technology and the authors were Ken Taylor and Clare Clifford.

I hope this is of some help.

Subject: Movat's pentachrome stain

We are looking for a modified version of the Movat's pentachrome stain for muscle, collagen and elastic.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
