[Histonet] Lymph node fixative/enhance solutions

[Greg Dobbin]

Hi Cindi,
I recently read (with interest) about a product called Dissect Aid made
by Decal Chemical Corp.  I wanted to try it out in my gross room but
unfortunately for us, it is not yet available in Canada-not a problem
for you!  Their toll free number is 800-428-5856 and you can find them
on the web.
Cheers!
Greg

Our pathologists would like us to start using a solution to help with
the dissection and ID of lymph nodes at gross.  I have done some
searching thru the archives and found some recipes but would like to
find a commercial source.  We do use Pen-Fix but it doesn't dissolve the
fat like the paths would like.  Has anyone got a source or recipe for a
fat dissolving solution that they would like to share?

Thanks.
