[Histonet] RE: Recycling alcohol

[Horn, Hazel V]

With Ethyl alcohol you will need a license and will have to keep records.  With reagent grade alcohol none of that is necessary.

Subject: [Histonet] Recycling alcohol

We are planning to recycle alcohol in the new lab I am working with.   Previously I always used an alcohol blend such as the "Flex" products.  However at this new lab we are going to only process biopsies so I believe I can get by using ethanol and not a blend.   We will be getting our alcohol from Thermofisher.  Can anyone tell me which alcohols they are using for dehydration?  Reagent alcohol or ethyl alcohol.  Obviously we will make our own concentrations from a 100%.
