Abstract: A new and convenient myelin stain is described. Paraformaldehyde fixed tissue is serially immersed in a nitroblue tetrazolium solution and then in a diaminobenzidine solution. The result is distinct blue staining of myelinated fiber tracts. This technique has advantages over presently used myelin stains.
