A combined resorcin-crystal violet-periodic acid-Schiff stain.
Resorcin-crystal violet followed by the periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) reaction can be used to stain elastic fibers and membranes greenish-yellow, while coloring PAS-positive materials pink to purple. Other tissue components are left unstained.
