Hi,
     I've been doing VVG as per Carson's Histotechnology:A Self
Instructional Text for decades. The procedure calls for Lugol's Iodine for
the hematoxylin solution. I'm trying to re-order a bottle of Iodine as I
always have. Now I'm being asked for a DEA registration by the vendor. Is
anyone else having this problem?

There's nothing like extra unnecessary red tape to make everything more
complicated than it needs to be!
