I only use Cresyl Fast Violet produced by Chroma-Gesellschaft,
Schmid and distributed by Cell Point Scientific. Cell Points
phone= (800) 999-9734. The catalog # is 1A396, specify 10 or 25
grams, $222, $ 441.55.
Sorry, I am not familiar with using Cresyl Violet for feulgen
staining. I use the above Cresyl for Nissl staining.

Good luck-
