Hi Patsy - the best one stop shop for info on muscle fiber is in Carson's book on Enzyme Histochemistry - CH13. It covers introduction on muscle fiber types, stains, and various techniques for identifying fast and slow twitch fibers.

Are there muscle experts out there that can help with this project?



"Do you have any leads on differentiating and staining muscle fiber types?
We have mixed fiber type whole muscle embedded in paraffin and want to tell
if there is a difference between rats in the % distribution of muscle types.
They are sometimes called fast twitch and slow twitch muscles.   Any leads
you could offer would be appreciated."



Best regards,

Patsy
