This is a low-power photomicrograph of liver from this case. This section was stained with a modified aldehyde fuchsin and counterstained with hematoxylin and eosin. Modified aldehyde fuchsin colors cystine-rich proteins--such as HBsAg and elastic fibers--deep purple. The cytoplasm of most liver cells (and RBCs) stain red due to the eosin and have dark blue nuclei.
