[Histonet] Miller's Elastic Stain

[Andrea Grantham]

Happy Monday!
I have had a request to do a Miller's Elastic Stain. I have almost all of 
the stains and I do have all of the chemicals to do the stain but I have a 
question.
One of the ingredients in the elastic stain is resorcin. I'm not a chemist 
so I have to ask this question, I have resorcinol in my chemical cabinet - 
is this the same thing as resorcin? I can find resorcinol in the Sigma cat. 
but not resorcin.

Thanks!
Andi Grantham
