[Histonet] RE: [IHCRG] Citraconic anhydride

[Patsy Ruegg]

Terri,
It was mentioned that one of the BioCare retrieval reagents was made with
this, not sure which one, I did ask if precautions came with it and they
said they did.  Sounds nasty to me as well, I will stear clear.

Subject: [IHCRG] Citraconic anhydride

My apologies in advance for those of you on both listserves...

In one of my IHC workshops at the NSH, the subject of citraconic anhydride
came up.  Apparently a couple of people have tried it but didn't get the
dramatic effects as seen in the JHC paper.  Somebody mentioned one company
has this commercially available, and I'm interested if this is true, which
company, and any experiences using this chemical, commercial or otherwise.
'Tis a nasty chemical, and one I may well be staying away from.

Best wishes,
