Re: [Histonet] Fixative in diff-quick
Diff Quick appears to be a modified Field's stain. The blue dye in the methanol is one of the modifications. Field's stain gives much the same staining, so using plain methanol should be of no concern. The simplest way to find out is surely to try it and see. http://stainsfile.info/stain/micro/field.htm Bryan Llewellyn Corbin, Clay via Histonet wrote: Hey folks, I am shopping for a diff-quick kit. However, all I really need is the fixative. Generally, there is a blue stain (triarylmethane) added to the methanol in the fixative solution. I have a giant jug of lab grade methanol. What would I lose by using methanol alone compared to the fixative solution included in a diff-quick kit? Thanks!
