Our lab has been using the PROTOCOL Hema 3 setup. This is a quick 3 step stain that we stain for Helicobacter. We get it from Fisher Scientific. We are also trying a Richard Allan product which is also a 3 step procedure that is the same as the PROTOCOL product. It takes less than 1 minute total time to stain 1 slide at a time. I suppose with a little slide carrier you could stain up to 5 slides simultaneously. But we prefer to do it, one at a time.
Hope this helps.

	Our lab had been using silver stain for Helicobacter - can anyone recommend
	a Diff-Quik type stain kit for this?
