[Histonet] substitute for Uranyl Nitrate in Snooks retic. met hod

[Carole Fields]

Hi Andi,
I have a procedure that substitutes 2% Ferric Ammonium Sulfate for the 1%
Uranyl  ...we used it all the time in San Diego.  I will attach the
procedure.  If anyone else needs a copy let me know.

method


I know this was discussed a while back and I have checked the archives 
where phosphomolybdic acid and zinc formalin is suggested instead of 1% 
Uranyl Nitrate.
Is anyone out there doing this method and what are you using - if you are 
using the phosphomolybdic acid, what percentage are you using?
Thanks.
Andi
