ABSTRACT
An acidified permanganate method can be used for bleaching melanin in mammalian skin and eyes. It allows good staining to be performed later.
Microfilariae in nitrocellulose sections can be stained by a modified phloxine tartrazine method.
Elastic fibres can be selectively stained by using a diluted solution of synthetic orcein.
