[Histonet] reagent question

[Laurie Colbert]

We use reagent alcohol for processing and staining.  It is a mixture of
isopropyl, ethanol, and methanol.

Subject: [Histonet] reagent question

We currently are using a pre made dehydrant (Isopropyl and Methyl
alcohol) on our processors and stainer but was wondering about switching
to
another  reagent alcohol (Ethanol, Isopropanol and Methanol).  Is there
a
preference as to what type of alcohol is best for processing routine
Histology specimens?

Thanks in advance
