I would second what Jennifer said. We have been using ProPar since it first came out with no problems. We recycle it just like an other solvent. You do have to put you slides in xylene before cover slipping with a tape coverslipper.

We were so glad to find something that allowed us to become virtually xylene free. We still need xylene for some things but not nearly the quantity that we used to keep around. The folks at Anatech were so helpful in helping us get started. We also recycle our ProPar which has saved us quite a bit of money over the years. I would recommend it!
