Carnoy is already in absolute alcohol. There is no reason to go back to
95%. We have processed a lot of Carnoy. I can give two references and
will attach a procedure in a direct message to Marykay. We process through
Absolute, methyl benzoate, xylene & paralast.

Methacarn which is simply Carnoy with Methanol substituted for the ethanol
Puchlter H, Waldrop FS, Meloan SN, Terry MS, Conner HM: Histochmie
21:97-116, 1970
Both of these papers contain much discussion & procedures.
