We just acquired a brand new laboratory microwave to replace ours from the 1980s,..........so we are optimizing our GMS stain. Currently we would let the glassware sit in
Chromic acid for 1 hr to chemically clean the glassware before staining. Now we are using the CAP required polypropylene vented microwave containers. Can we skip the chromic
Acid step?
