Hi Abrahan,
I don't know if 3DEM mailing-list want to support FIB-SEM community. If
they do, that is great!
Otherwise, you may consider the recently announced FIB-SEM discussion group
started on Google Groups. You can find a link here:
http://fibsem.org/index.php?news&nid=8
(I'd love to personally address your question, but I don't have any
background with staining.)
Cheers,
Mike
