[Histonet] RE: Type I Water

[Blazek, Linda]

I have used tap water without any problems.  The only thing is you need to be sure you clean your waterbath well at the end of the day and dry it out.  What I experienced was hard water residue on the waterbath.

Subject: [Histonet] Type I Water

Clearly I sent this too quickly (early) - this is in regards to the water in our tissue float baths - does it HAVE to be Type I?
Thanks

Good Morning-
I feel like I am racking up frequent flier miles on Histonet lately:) We are seeing bacteria in our type I.  This requires us to obtain our Type I from another of our lab sites.  Do I have any other options?  Like tap water?
