Jore's is a buffered formalin fixative which contains chloral hydrate.  
We have used it for years.  Fresh specimens are placed in the fixative 
and do not turned that "fixed" color but, rather, retain the "fresh" 
look.  It is good for showing students lesions months after the tissue 
has been taken from the body.  
     Contact me personally is you are interested in the formulation of 
the solution.  Cheryl
