title: [Astra blue staining as a simple method for demonstrating senile plaques and Alzheimer fibrillary changes].
abstract: In comparison with the silver impregnation methods and with the thioflavine-S fluorescence method astra blue staining is an adequate technique for the demonstration of senile plaque and changes in Alzheimer's fibrils. Astra blue staining proved to be a useful tool in routine tests.
