RE: Sigma Pre-made Reagents and Kits

From:"Horn, Hazel V"

Sigma has not gone bust.   They are not carrying the enzyme staining kits
anymore.   However, they are still selling the histology special stain kits.
I received a letter from them this week.   I can't remember all the details,
but they are removing some items from their inventory.   I didn't pay much
attention after I saw they would still be selling the GMS kit we buy from
them.
