Summary: A simple staining method for collagen in semi-thin sections of nerves is described. This technique consists of ap-
plying basic fuchsin (0.05%) solution for 2 min. to ± 1.25 mm plastic resin-embedded sections after routine toluid-
ine blue staining. This staining method clearly demonstrates the amount and orientation of collagenous
connective tissue in the nerve, both in transverse and longitudinal sections.
