Hi All, 

I have a dilemma. I have a lab assistant who does not use the dissect aid to find lymph nodes. She will not wear a respirator so she prefers 95% alcohol. From many years experience, I have seen that the 95% alcohol ruins morphology but also destroys the tissue for future Immuno stains.

Can anyone find some documentation to support my claim that we SHOULD use DissectAid and NOT alcohol????

Kind regards
