[Histonet] bone clearing

[Elizabeth Chlipala]

Trisha

We process a lot of bone (rat, guinea pig, dog, sheep joints, etc) and
still use xylene as a clearing agent.  Our processor has three xylene
stages on it.  I have used Hemo De in the past and it worked well if I
am remembering correctly.  To be honest we have not tried many xylene
subsititutes, we did once and it was a disaster.

Do any of you find one clearing product works better on bone than
others?

Thanks,
