Product overview
Trichrome Stain Kit (Connective Tissue Stain) ab150686 is intended for use in the histological visualization of collagenous connective tissue fibers in tissue sections.
The trichrome stain kit may be used on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded. For frozen sections, it will require optimization by the user.
Trichrome stain protocol summary:

The sample was deparaffinized by heating to 60°C for 1 hour and then deparaffinization following a standard protocol. Sections were then fixed with Bouin's solution (included in the kit) for 1 hour at 60°C in humid conditions.
