I see in an abstract that for histopathological diagnosis of lead poisoning
the authors suggested Ziehl-Nielsen staining for the presence of acid fast
inclusions in osteoclasts. In books and in the Intenet I only found
Ziehl-Nielsen for microbiology/Bacilli/mycobacteriosis. The Ziehl-Nielsen
staining could be the same ( I haven't the original paper)? Can someone help
me?

With compliments
