Dear Histonet list, I have made some paraffin blocks of demineralized bone and cartilage. I would like to stain paraffin slides with DAPI (or another DNA stain). Does DAPI staining (or other fluorescent DNA stain) work well on paraffin sections? Does anyone have a protocol they would like to share?
I am assuming that histological stains (like the Feulgen stain would work better?). I could also try both. Thank you in advance All the best Alida -- Dr. Alida M.
