Introduction
Von Kossa kit is used for calcium deposits and calcium salt visualization. Silver ions from silver nitrate replace carbonate and phosphate calcium ions that, under a strong source of light, create a microscopically visible silver glow. Treating the preparation with lithium carbonate prevents false-positive staining. Counterstaining is achieved with Nuclear Fast Red (Kernechtrot) reagent.
