A device for staining ultrathin sections on formvar-coated slotted grids is described. It consisted of a plexiglass base with slots that supported the grids and a top which is secured by wing nuts. When placed together the two portions enclose a chamber. An input port, controlled by a three-way valve, allowed either staining solutions or distilled water to flow into the chamber. An output port allowed the solutions to flow out. A large number of grids can be stained simultaneously without the risk of contamination. The grids are handled infrequently, therefore the formvar coat is maintained intact. Uniform staining of sections is achieved and a small quantity of stain is used (3 ml/20 grids).
