Hi,
   Is there anyone who uses exclusively isopropyl alcohol to process with
rather than ethanol? I have had great results with isopropyl alcohol for
some tissues, but I wanted to know if there are any pitfalls to using it
exclusively for processing. I've noticed that isopropyl is much cheaper than
ethanol, so it leads me to wonder why ethanol is so prevalant for
dehydration.

Thanks,
Amos Brooks
