I received some blocks from an outside lab requesting us to stain for
leagionella. The first time the tech tried the stain it did not work well.
I called the lab requesting the work and asked what fixative had been used.
The answer was zinc formalin. Before we repeat it, I would like to know if
any of these zinc formalin fixatives cause problems with either the
Warthin-Starry or Modified Steiner stains. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
