[Histonet] Fetal brain

[Paula Pierce]

When using Bouin's fixative, you are suppose to rinse several times in 70% alcohol, a couple hours each if whole specimen, to remove the yellow color before processing. Otherwise, the picric acid in Bouin's continues to "eat" your tissue and will interfere with staining.
