title: A rapid connective tissue stain for glycol methacrylate embedded tissue.
abstract: No reliable connective tissue stains for GMA sections were available until recently. However, the use of toluidine blue in combination with basic fuchsin appeared to be a rapid and reliable connective tissue stain for glycol methacrylate (GMA) embedded tissue.
