PTAH Staining
Dear HistoNet Colleagues,
I frequently perform Mallory’s PTAH stain. All of the techniques
I have found require mordanting in Zenker’s solution, which contains
mercury. Because of the hazards of mercury, I would like to find an
alternative stain that will satisfy my pathologists’ needs, or find a
suitable replacement for mercury-containing Zenker’s solution.
I would greatly appreciate any ideas you might have. Thank you all very
much!
Best regards,
Kim Atkin HT (ASCP)
