Periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) stain
Periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) is a histochemical stain, that specifically localizes carbohydrates in tissues. The reaction produces a magenta color, thus identifying glycogen deposits in these liver hepatocytes. Histochemical stains are more specific than conventional stains which rely on simple charge interactions to label tissue structures. Liver 1000x
