mercury or zinc removal

From:MELISSA JUNKERMEIER <MJUNKER1@FAIRVIEW.ORG>

I was just told about a process of removing mercury or zinc from tissue by using xylene with a few crystals of iodine in it.  This is supposed to be helpful with IHC staining, eliminating the use of 0.5% sodium thiosulfate.  I was wondering if anyone does this, or has tried it and can tell me how it works?  Thank you
Melissa
