[Histonet] Xylol substitutes

[Monfils, Paul]

There are many xylene substitutes in use today, but as far as I know
(someone correct me if I'm wrong) they all have to be disposed of as
hazardous waste.  And many of them cost more to purchase than xylene.  So,
financial considerations are probably not a good reason to switch.
