   First off you shouldn't leave Bouin's sitting for that long out o   shelf.   Once  the  water evaporates out of the solution it is extrem   ely  flammable  (explosive  even I think?).  Also, you shouldn't leave
   ti   jerky" su   make  up  an   it  if  it  is     probably  just  chalk  it  u   Luck...let me know what happens!!

   To: [2]histonet <@t> lists.uts   Cc: [3]histonet <@t> lists.uts   Hi all,
   I  found into a shelf of the laboratory a small flask containing mouse
   sampl   fixed in Bouin's fluid and preserved in ethanol at 70°, forgotten
   ther   few years.
   I  wonder  if  it  would  be  possible  to  continue the process up to
   paraffin
   embedding for histological preparations.
   Some  time  ago  a  professor of biology at the University of Florence
   told me    they could remain in alcohol for years, but on literature I found that
   the    can not be so long without altering tissues.
   Has anyone had a similar experience?
   It's better to throw everything away or not?
   Thank you in advance.
   Kind Regards,
   Massimo Tosi
