Before the PA-Schiff technique was developed, silver impregnation was an effective method for the histological demonstration of reticular fibers and basement membranes (Mareseh, 1905; Herxheimer, 1907; Kon, 1908 etc.). The PA-Schiff technique, developed by McManus (1946), Lillie (1947) and Hotchkiss (1948) shows reticular fibers and basement membranes very beautifully (Lillie, 1947; KeManus, 1948 (a) and (b); Leblond 1950) and was believed to indicate in tissue sections the presence of polysaccharides tree or combined with protein (G1egg et a1, 1952).
