Abstract

Source: Ghnenis, A. B. et al., Toluidine Blue Staining of Resin-Embedded Sections for Evaluation of Peripheral Nerve Morphology. J. Vis. Exp. (2018) This video demonstrates the staining technique of resin-embedded, osmium tetroxide-treated rat peripheral nerve sections using toluidine blue. The stained nerve sections help visualize the fine structures of peripheral nerves.
