    AbstractA simple staining method for collagen in semi-thin sections of nerves is described. This technique consists of applying basic fuchsin (0.05%) solution for 2 min. to +/- 1.25 microns plastic resin-embedded sections after routine toluidine blue staining. This staining method clearly demonstrates the amount and orientation of collagenous connective tissue in the nerve, both in transverse and longitudinal sections.
