Mixing Stains?
So, those are the pictures for aniline blue. I should note that:
I AM NOT CLAIMING TO KNOW FOR SURE THAT ANYTHING I STAINED IS WHAT I THINK IT IS!
Still, the photos are pretty cool looking! (Especially given that I took them with a digital camera held against the eye-piece of the microscope....)
The next step will be to try the other stains individually, and then to try staining a single sample with a couple of different stains. With any luck, I'll have some decent staining procedures worked out about the same time that we have some extra chondrocytes to try them on. Amazingly enough, Tshering was able to find all three stains listed on my first post in a cupboard in Boone! The bottles they are in all look quite a lot older than me, but if they work, it will certainly save ordering and shipping time. Not to mention money!
