[Histonet] Chromium Trioxide

[Knutson, Deanne]

Fellow Histonetters,

We use Chromium Trioxide in our GMS stain, and the cost has escalated
tremendously.  Does anyone use a substitute for this chemical?  I am curious
what others are using for their GMS stain.  We still do our stains manually
at the present time.  Thank you for your advice.
