We use Richard-Allan Scientific Hematoxylin 2, Clarifier 2, Bluing
Reagent and Eosin w/ Phloxine.  Our docs really like these stains. We
have an auto tissue slide stainer. I even use the Hematoxylin, Bluing
and Eosin w/ Phloxine for our frozen sections ("quick H & E"). 

Hope this helps.

Subject: [Histonet] Hematoxylin

Hello,

I was just wondering what everyone is using for Hematoxylin these days.
We are one of those rare Histology Labs that makes their own hematoxylin
and eosin and I just got the OK from our Pathologist to try out some
commercial brands.  What do you like?  What are you using?  Good and bad
comments are greatly appreciated.

Thanks!!
