[Histonet] Early fixatives

[mtitford <@t> aol.com]

Ryan Hickey asks about the historical use of fixatives, and stains derived from natural sources.


A good place to start is with the book by Brian Bracegirdle " A History of Microtechnique" (second edition) Published by Scientific Heritage 1987.


There are many articles out there and you will have to do a literature search for them.
