Tim Coskran somewhere asks about demonstrating polyethylene glycol in tissue samples.
Does he mean polyethylene as in prosthetic implants?. Dr? Vinh in the Orthopedic Department at the AFIP co-authored?a paper published?in about 1990 entitled " Identification of polymeric debris is tissue sections by the?Oil Red O staining method."??
? I am pretty sure polyethylene glycol is a fluid and would not survive paraffin processing.
