Picro-fuchsin
Picro-fuchsin. 10 cc. Of a 1% aqueous solution of acid fuchsin; 75 cc. Of a saturated aqueous solution of picric acid. Stain deeply with hematoxylin first; then use the picro-fuchsin. Wash off the picro-fuchsin with distilled water. Mount in non-neutralized balsam, or better in acid balsam (balsam 50 cc., glacial acetic acid 5 drops).
