Abstract

Elastic fibres may be stained by a number of dyes, e.g. Direct Blue 1 (C.I. 24410), Direct Blue 10 (C.I. 24340), Direct Blue 15 (C.I. 24400), Direct Blue 152 (C.I. 24366) and Direct Violet 37 (C.I. 24370). A convenient method using Direct Blue 152 has been developed which is specific for elastic fibres. The method is simple and allows the demonstration of other connective tissue fibres. Staining of elastic fibres is unimpaired by numerous blocking procedures or by changes in dyebath pH. These properties are shared by several standard elastic fibre stains.
