[A modification of microglia impregnation (author's transl)].

A modification of the Weil and Davenport (1933) silver carbonate method for microglia impregnation is described. Formalin-dextran-CaCl2 solution was used as a fixation solution. The technique is simple, reproducible and improved. The staining method includes the demonstration of as well resting as progressive microglia.
