I have request to implement this stain for frozen muscle in OCT blocks.  The 
pathologist is looking for demonstration of ragged red fibers, however it is my 
understanding (very limited) that this (in this circumstance) is a diagnostic 
stain and the tissue on hand that I will be using for development will be 
normal with no RRF present.   I am unable to discern what type of tissue to use 
as a positive control, outside of muscle diseased specimen.  Any suggestions 
and/or working methods would be greatly appreciated.

Heather Hart, MLT (ASCP)
