Clarke's fixative has been known to work as a replacement to Carnoy's, it is said to be the original "Carnoy's I", whereas the Carnoy's as it is known today with chloroform is Carnoy's II.

Subject: [Histonet] Carnoys solution

Hello to all in histoland.  Does anyone have a carnoys recipe that does not have call for chloroform?  I had a recipe for one, but now I can't find it.
Any and all help will be appreciated.
