I find it hard to believe that the usual waft in some alleged mordanting fluid has any effect on anything.

PS is the opposite of inking, outking or inqueen?

   I have a grossing question.....

   When  I  gross  in  Colon  Bxs,  I  ink the stalk and have always used
   bouins,  or  vinegar  to  mordant  the  ink.   I have been told that I
   shouldn't  do  this  because  it affects the tissue down the line, has
   anyone else experienced this?
