Connective tissue is one of the major types
of tissue that connects different parts of
tissue and supports the body parts.
The fibrous part of C.T includes:
• Collagen fibers
• Reticular fibers
• Elastic fibers
• Basement membrane
![Page 5: Connective Tissue Fibers with their Stains](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012721/61b39da33e020537a453bf05/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Collagen fibers : composed of the protein
collagen and provide the greatest strength
of the 3 fiber types. Found in ligaments,
tendons, cartilage and bone.
Elastic Fibers: composed of the protein
elastin and provide the greatest flexibility
among the fiber types. Found in skin and
walls of blood vessels.

Reticular fibers : composed of the protein
collagen. They form a delicate network for
many soft organs and a network around
nerve fibers, fat cells, LNs, skeletal and
smooth ms fibers.
Basement membrane: C.T elements that
separate the epithelial and endothelial cells
from the underlying connective tissue.

2- Trichrome Stains
Trichrome stains: 3 dyes used to distinguish
collagen from muscle and aid in the diagnosis of
fibrotic changes, neuromuscular diseases and
tumors of muscle origin.
Result:
1. Collagen: blue
2. Muscle, Cytoplasm& RBCs: Red
3. Nucleus: blue

2- Trichrome Stains
Masson’s Trichrome
Gomori’s One-Step Trichrome Stains
The most common techniques for trichrome staining
The Masson utilizes all of the mordanting and
staining steps individually , where as the one-step
incorporates all of the staining steps in one staining
solution except the mordant and nuclear stain.

by the use of stains
involving silver solutions.
Impregnation of silver ions
to the fibers and
subsequent reduction of
those silver ions to their
visible metallic form
(argyrophilic).
