Iron Hematoxylin Staining Method
A microscopy staining method that utilizes a mixture of iron and hematoxylin to visualize intracellular structures in a microscopic sample. In this dye system, iron acts as a mordant to hematoxylin rendering it insoluble, thereby allowing irreversible blue-black colored dyeing to the cell nucleus. (NCI Thesaurus)
