Title: Rapid detection of fungal filaments in corneal scrapings by microwave heating-assisted Grocott's methenamine silver staining. Author: Vemuganti GK, Naidu C, Gopinathan U. Journal: Indian J Ophthalmol; 2002 Dec; 50(4):326-8. PubMed ID: 12532502. Abstract: The Gomoris methanamine silver impregnation technique is a highly reliable and archiveable method of detecting fungal filaments, but the staining procedure is time consuming and laborious. A technique using microwave energy to reduce the duration of Gomori's silver staining is described.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
