Hi Ian:
The Boedecker's fluid (1937) is considered as very good for enamel.
It consists of 
methanol (100 mL) + celloidin (6 mL) + nitric acid (4.5 mL) and it is reported 
to work well.
Regards
René J.

            I now find myself, after many years away, coming back to dental
histology so need a bit of advice on current techniques. Ground sections, I
still have the technique. Fully mineralized, embed in resin and section
using a tungsten carbide knife. Deminerailized, here I'm not sure. I'm
going
back 30-40 years when I used formic acid but is there anything better that
is recommended?

Ian.
