[Histonet] Sakura Glas Coverslipper and Xylene Sub

[Ingles Claire]

We use propar for a xylene substitute and refrax as a mountant. These are sold by Anatech and are created to be more compatable than propar and permount. We have used permount in the past with the propar though. We don't have any problems on our coverslipper, and they seem to dry faster.

Xylene substitutes of terpene (d-Limonene) origin cannot substitute xylene for a cover slipper and those of alkane (35 different brand names) origin do not work very well either. I thing we are stuck with xylene for this task.

Hello,

We use Xylene in the Sakura Glas auto-coverslipper and I would like to know if
anyone uses a xylene sub in this piece of equipment. I'm looking for one
that is okay to use in the equipment and one with less odor than Xylene.

Thanks in advance,
