[Histonet] Histonet Digest, Vol 245, Issue 17

[Bob Richmond]

Ann Specian (where?) asks about Epredia Xylene Substitute:


>>We are thinking of changing from xylene to this substitute. Does anybody
have any Processing protocols using Epredia Xylene?substitute that they
could share?<<


Well, what’s in it? You’re asking your readers to look it up for you.


I Googled it, and found the SDS (materials safety data sheet) buried many
pages down in the Epredia web site:


https://epredia.webdamdb.com/bp/#/folder/7477836/104813679


It’s identified only as “naphtha”. That’s a petroleum cut that’s heavier
than gasoline, more like kerosene. Dry-cleaners used it before they went to
less flammable alternatives.


So it’s an “aliphatic” clearing agent, but a very crude one. If you want an
aliphatic (rather than a turpentine-like lemon-smelling preparation), I’d
find one specially formulated for tissue processing, rather than this
repurposed cleaning fluid.
