[Histonet] Special Stain Procedures

[Horn, Hazel V]

I have to disagree with Rene on this one....the Microwave Copper from American Master Tech is awesome and it's never failed.  It's a rhodamine stain and we don't even use the microwave.  We use a pressure cooker.

Neither procedure is reliable. Use Tim's method (sulfur dioxide).
