Hi Vanessa, Yes! I have our eosin staining down to just 10 secs! I am considering just letting the slides hover over top of the eosin for a minute instead of actually dipping! LOL Very strong indeed. Greg

I manually stained with Surgipath Hx for 2mins, then bluer the eosin for 30secs and the whole tissue was completely pink!
