[Histonet] Osmium tetroxide staining for lipids

[Sheila Adey]

Hi Everyone:
 
One of my pathologists wants me to look into Osmium Tetroxide for staining 
lipids. From what I can gather on the internet, it looks like it is used in 
Electron microscopy for fixation and staining.
Is anyone using this procedure for routine 4 micrometer sections?
 
Thanks
:)
