Well the problem with using zinc formalin is that you'd have to know in
advance which cases you were doing ICC on, and that's not practical.  Also
I've yet to run across a pathologist who likes to use zinc formalin because
as they claim, "It's no better than plain old formalin".

The reason for using alcoholic formalin, was the fatty tissue/not wanting
long processing issue.  Thanks.
