It is always better to be safe than sorry. You should start in EtOL95% → 100% and clear as usual before infiltration. René J.

I moved jobs, but am still here in 80 degree Austin weather... Question. If tissue has been stored in 70% alcohol for up to a year, does there need to be anything done to it before processing? I am assuming that some rehydration might be necessary? If not can you just throw it on the processor on a normal cycle? Thanks for you help!!
