Hi, I work in a Surgical Pathology frozen section lab outside the OR rooms.
Normally we only perform an HE on the frozens. Now we are looking for a fast
and inexpensive stain for fungus on our frozen sections. Fast is the operative
word because we have to report diagnoses back to ORs in a 20
It appears, from a research paper I was reading, that a 1% solution of uvitex
2b added to eosin will cause fungus to fluoresce under uv light.
I haven't performed it, however it could be as quick as an HE stain. Looks
promising.
