Product overview
Elastic Stain Kit ab150667 uses a modified Verhoeff's Van Gieson / EVG stain to stain elastic fibers / elastin in tissue sections in histology. Staining of elastic tissue is useful in cases of emphysema (atrophy of elastic tissue), arteriosclerosis (thinning and loss of elastic fibers) and various other vascular diseases.
