I accidentally included a brightfield image when updating the site. About the staining, I have to admit that I do not know the secret, because (I confess....), I used a commercial slide. They evidently also microtomed the potato, and did not scratch off a potato sample, as commonly done. Oliver. Hi,
The first picture now has been replaced with the correct one. I accidentally included a brightfield image when updating the site. About the staining, I have to admit that I do not know the secret, because (I confess….), I used a commercial slide. They evidently also microtomed the potato, and did not scratch off a potato sample, as commonly done.

I have seen blue stach with iodine of course but the first picture is said to be dark ground. The bright field the grains are red which seems toindicate you used something other than iodine or that perhaps the grains were degraded by heat or partial enzyme action, but they seem to be quit intact. Sowhat's the secret? The slides werw obviously peviously stained but what with? I have seen blue stach with iodine of course but the first picture is said to be dark ground.
