Abstract

A method of staining is described which is especially designed to facilitate differentiation of the cell types of the rat anterior hypophysis. Fixation in Zenker-formol solution is recommended. Pre-staining of the nuclei by a short immersion in alum hematoxylin is followed by mordanting in anilin alcohol and a 45 minute period of staining in azocarmine solution at 60d`C. The counterstains, acid green and orange G, are dissolved in clove oil to avoid destaining of the azocarmine.
