[Histonet] Marking Tissues with Eosin

[Jamal Rowaihi]

Hi If you are using buffered Formaline so the Eosin color will not resist until the end of tissue processing.I recommend to add small amount of stock Eosin to the last alcohol in theTissue processor.

Dear Rebecca,

Yes this is possible. just don't use a too strong concentration. The eosin
should give a slight pink color on the tissue after processing and after
embedding.

Good luck,

Maarten
