Dear Fellow Histonetters,
There are 3 counterstains that can be used with the Sanderson's Rapid Bone Stain (RBS). We primarily used the acidified acid fuchsin, however, we had clients that only used a van Gieson counterstain. Light green can also be used. We normally stained for 1 minute ground sections in the RBS, rinsed in water and then counterstained. As Gayle mentioned, intensity of the RBS or the counterstain can be increased with addtional time.
