I think that the N-butyl alcohol method is OK and some original methods
used this because it is miscible with paraffin wax. However if an
intermediary agent is not used then although the tissue remains softer
than when using ethanol, the butyl alcohol takes much longer to be
replaced by the paraffin wax.

Subject: [Histonet] insect histology book inquiry
Good Thursday morning!
Is there anybody out there in histoland who might have a copy of the now
out of print book, A Manual of Basic Techniques in Insect Histology by
P.
Barbosa, Autumn Publishers, 1974?
I'm looking for details on Stile's butyl alcohol technique that was
discussed in a paper on whiteflies and Barbosa was cited.
A jillion thanks to anybody who can provide this technique!
