[Histonet] DISTILLED WATER FOR BUFFER FOR AUTOMATED STAINER

[Vickroy, Jim]

WE ARE HAVING REAL ISSUES WITH THE PH OF THE DISTILLED WATER WE BUY COMMERCIALLY.   WE PURCHASE A GENERAL DISTILLED WATER (HINKLEY) AND THE PH OF THE WATER IS CONSISTENTLY LOW 6.0 OR LESS.   WE TRIED A NURSERY WATER (WITH A FEW MINERALS ADDED FOR TASTE) AND THE PH WAS 7.0 EXACTLY.  HAS ANYBODY ELSE EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS WITH THE BUFFER PH BECAUSE OF DISTILLED WATER PH AND DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS?
