First, Happy New Year to all!
Second: I am sure you are becoming aware of a growing tendency in tissue processing, namely, the increasing use of iso-propanol, also called isopropylic alcohol or 2-propanol for tissue processing in substitution of both ethanol and specially xylene.
Most of those labs using the Peloris tissue processor use iso-propanol and paraffin wax only, but the use is beginning to spread amongst labs that do not work with this instrument.
My question is: Would you mind letting me know which laboratories use iso-propanol for tissue processing instead of xylene?
I will really appreciate your answer, either directly to me or shared with all in HistoNet.
Regards
René J.
