I've been having problems with my PA when it comes to proper
decalcification of our bone specimens.  They are either over or under
decalcified.

Do many of you use a chemical end point method to determine the
decalcification or do you use other methods?  If so, could you tell me
the best product to use?

I appreciate any feedback.
