Dorner-Snyder stain

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Dorner-Snyder staining is a histological staining for endospores .

principle

The Dorner-Snyder stain uses carbol fuchsin and a nigrosine counterstain. Alternatives are Moeller staining with carbol fuchsin and a methylene blue counterstain and Schaeffer-Fulton staining with malachite green and a saffranin counterstain.

history

The Dorner-Snyder stain was developed by Marion Snyder in 1934 . It is a further development of the Dorner staining from 1926.
