First, I would try someone else's HCl, especially if it's from a different

If I remember correctly the last time I prepared my own Schiff reagent was in
1955 and it came beautifully BUT it is a real pain to prepare it, and not

manufacturer has the responsibility of QC'ing the product before it is
shipped and sold
Good Morning!
I'm a newcomer to the list, and I'll start by pointing out that I'm not a
histologist by any means. I am a freshwater ecologist, and we're trying to
study mucus secretion behavior in freshwater snails.
