I did see this at one point. It turned out that the tech was rinsing in water
instead of going straight into 95% alcohol from the eosin. (We use an alcohol
based Eosin-Y.)

Have any of you in histoland had a problem with pale or fading eosin in the
H&E stain when you have changed nothing in your procedure.  If so, and you
solved the problem - what was the cause?

Thanks
