[Histonet] Decal. of bone marrow core biopsies

Hello histonetters,
I would be interested in the ratio how many labs do "acid" and how many do
"neutral" decalcification on bone marrow core biopsies. 
Here in Austria most labs use the neutral way with Tris buffered EDTA, as we
did until a year ago. Now we use 10% formic acid. Perhaps otherwhere in
Histoland it looks different?
Can anyone give me an estimation?

Thanks
