Masson Fontana Stain Kit

Based on the Fontana 1912 : Masson 1914 method, this kit is used to demonstrate melanin in tissue but can also demonstrate argentaffin cell granules and lipofuscins. The principle of the Masson Fontana is based upon a reducing silver technique. Melanin and melanin precursors are capable of reducing silver and acid ferricyanide solutions. Hence this technique will also demonstrate staining in argentaffin cell granules and lipofuchsin.
