[Histonet] DAB restain

[MKing]

I've lightened DAB immersing slides with dilute household bleach (sodium 
hypochlorite), to the point where it was no longer visible.  Try 
1:20-1:100 dilution of the 5% commercial liquid.  Don't know what 
happens to it next time you react tissue for DAB, would recommend 
another substrate or fluorescence, or at least appropriate controls.

If the section already has DAB (as it probably does), you cannot 
eliminate it.
