Erratum to: Histochem Cell Biol (2011) 136:709–717 DOI 10.1007/s00418-011-0874-3

The authors would like to correct the term “crystal violet” to “cresyl violet” in the Materials and methods section, step 6 of the conventional LFB staining procedure.

The correct text should read as follows:

  1. 6.

    Counterstain in 0.1 % aqueous solution of cresyl violet with 5 mg oxalic acid for 10 min at 56 °C.

The authors regret the error.
