NCIt definition : A method that sequentially exposes tissues samples to three acid dyes and acid washes,
which can differentiate between collagen and smooth muscle in those samples. The classic
recipe for this histological staining method uses Weigert's Iron hematoxylin, which
stains nuclei brown or black, Biebrich Scarlet, which dyes the cytoplasm, muscle and
keratin pink or red, and aniline blue, which stains collagen and bone blue or green.;
