Medical Definition of Schultz stain

1. A stain for cholesterol; a relatively specific but insensitive histochemical test for cholesterol and cholesterol esters in which frozen sections of formalin-fixed tissues are oxidised in iron alum, hydrogen peroxide, or sodium iodate, then treated with sulfuric acid to give a blue-green to red colour in a positive reaction; the presence of glycerol inhibits the reaction.
