Urgent:dried out specimens

From:"Renton, Lousie, Mrs" <177louie@chiron.wits.ac.za>

 Dear Histonetters,

I am in urgent need of a method for the resoration of dried out 
processed tissue. We had a problem with the processor over the 
weekend, and all our  precious ( research ) material is all dried out 
and shrivelled.

I recall  hearing of a method that used phenol, and someone that 
mentioned fabric softener on the histonet, but I cannot find the 
literature. Bancrof has a method, but we do not have access to the 
chemicals cited.
Is there  a kind soul out there who could offer a recipe to save our 
skins? ( or in this case our bones!)


Thank you in anticipation

Louise Ren
