ABSTRACT:
A technique for staining and preparing mammalian tissue for examination and study is disclosed. The technique features a fixed tissue that is embedded with paraffin to facilitate the cutting of uniformly thin sections and the penetration of a silver stain into the interstices of the collagen matrix. In particular, a 25-30 micron thick slice of cardiac tissue is silver stained and examined for cardiomyopathies.
