A staining procedure for melanin in semithin and ultrathin epoxy section
Abstract
Staining for melanin at the ultrastructural level may act as an important diagnostic aid by helping to identify apparently amelanotic melanomas. A modified Warthin‐Starry (WS) procedure for melanin has therefore been adapted for direct application to epoxy sections. Minute amounts of melanin can thus be demonstrated in individual melanosomes, indicating a high sensitivity. Using the usual types of fixation, specificity for melanin at the...
