Xylene infiltrates tissue, and prepares it for coverslipping (ie, with Permount). You still need xylene or a substitute if you plan to coverslip

If I embed my sample in OCT, do I need to use xylene in later steps (i.e.
when staining or before mounting)? I have a protocol that does that but I thought xylene was really more for paraffin embedding. Thanks!!
