A reticulin stain would be used to highlight reticular fibers in tissues, particularly in histology studies of organs like the liver or bone marrow. It is commonly used to demonstrate the presence of these fine, delicate fibers that form a supportive network in certain tissues.

Which RBC cells can be seen on supravital stain?

By definition, a supravital stain is used to demonstrate the in vivo vital processes of cells that have been removed from the body. Supravital stains (New Methylene Blue N; Brilliant Cresyl Blue) are used in particular to stain reticulocytes for a manual retic count. Reticulocytes are immature RBC's released early from the bone marrow in response to anemia. Using Brilliant Cresyl Blue, the reticulocytes will show a "reticular" (mesh-like) network of residual rRNA that has not yet been extruded from the cell. Any RBC can be seen on a supravital stain, supravital stains are used to identify Heinz bodies in cases of G6PD deficiency anemia
