  • Title: [Staining of the surface layer in jaw tumors].
    Author: Strunz V, Gross UM.
    Journal: Dtsch Zahnarztl Z; 1977 Oct; 32(10):778-80. PubMed ID: 71985.
    Abstract:
    In the histological preparation for surface layer staining, saw cuts 100-300 micrometer thick of undecalcified bone or tooth are made with or without alloplastic implantation material. Only one side of the cut is stained for 4 hours. During this time the stain penetrates about 15 micrometer into the preparation. Deeper-lying cells and structures remain unstained and appear merely as shadows that are not troublesome. The time-consuming process of making thin sections is dispensed with and variously stained serial sections are possible.
