What Alcohol do you use? Ethanol vs. Methanol
From: | Histo-Scientific Research Laboratories |
Dear Histonetters,
We currently use a denatured, lab grade alcohol
which consists of 95 parts ethyl and 5 parts isopropyl. We are considering
a switch to a mixture of 90 parts ethyl, 5 parts isopropyl and 5 parts
methyl. We will be using this reagent alcohol on our processor and
stainer. We are considering the switch for a simple reason: easy
pour bottles! Would there be a noticeable difference in
processing/staining due to the different makeup? What is everyone else
using?
thanks,
