[Histonet] What is the best xylene substitute for histology?

[Carl Hobbs]

As usual, great insights/advice from JK
I always learn from you, Sir
You are THE person that I "listen" to  ( you may have stood on the shoulders of others?? Do tell)
I'm always looking for xylene substitutes.....haven't found any as efficient....sigh
I run the gamut with my Safety people regularly but.....they don't understand
Then they just "disappear" each year....
Not good, I know....
I run a Leica "dipN dunk" processor ( Leica TP1020)
Been using it for 20 yrs without problems...phew!
However.....many diagnostic labs use ( far more expensive) substitutes effectively....
Homing  in to this thread/topic....avidly
