[Histonet] tissue dye

[Steven Coakley]

Good morning all,
I have heard of some techs using eosin in an alcohol of the tissue processor to dye tissues.
I'd like to avoid this, but would like to dye specific tissues for easier orientation.  Would a dilute eosin work if used prior to putting the tissues on the processor?  If so, aqueous or alcoholic?  What percentage?
