[Histonet] Changing from HemoDe to VWR Xylene Substitute?

[Michelle Aono]

Hi,

Does anyone have any experience changing from HemoDe to VWR Xylene Substitute?
Did you have to extend your processing times? By how much?
When people talk to good "recycling" of the clearing agent, does that mean re-use?  As in how often you need to discard/refill the reservoirs in the processor?
I currently coverslip with Eukitt mounting medium, is this compatible?
Anything other advice you can offer or things you have discovered during your switch?

Thanks!
