I use Mayer's Hematoxlyin for 30-45 secs. Wash for 2 minutes, blue in Ammonia Water, wash for 5 minutes, dehydrate clear and mount if it is DAB. If it is AEC I do the same except I rinse in distilled water before mounting with aqueous mount.

Thanks in advance, Naira Message: 15 Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2009 09:50:42 +0800 From: ooi.ting.h...@nhc.com.sg Subject: [Histonet] Different between Richard Allan and Harris Hematoxylin Hi, I am interested to know what is the different between different brands of hematoxylin especially for Richard Allan and Harris. I am glad if there is any advice or suggestion on the choosing of hematoxylin. Welcome any suggestion of webpage that may tell the differences too. I am dealing with plastic resin section and doing a normal hematoxylin and eosin staining. Your advice is appreciated. Thank you very much!
