[Histonet] Gill's 3?

[Breeden, Sara]

Excuse the question if it is patently obvious - perhaps I'm having a
Senior Moment.  I occasionally do Congo Red (Sigma's kit) and it calls
for Gill 3 Hematoxylin.  According to the description of Gill 3, it is a
regressive hematoxylin - as is Harris'.  Should I not have Gill 3 at
that moment, what would be the result (pos/neg) of using Harris'?  A
follow-on to this question: is there a vendor for Bouin's that sells
less than a liter?  Thanks in advance.
