cellulose stain

[Tamara Western]

Hi,
       I am looking for a cellulose-specific stain.  Can anyone
recommend anything?  I was going to use Calcofluor white (aka
Fluorescent brightener 28) but further reading showed me it also
stains acidic polysaccharides (pectin) so it isn't reasonable for
me...


Thanks!

Tamara
