Hello gang Jores has several references found in a Google search, including a post right here on the Histonet from 2002. It contains Chloral Hydrate which is very difficult to find. Do a search and have a look. Several suggestions. AnnieinArabia (now retired in Africa) Sent from my iPhone

[Histonet] p17 mice brain sections (Alonso Mart?nez Canabal)

Re: [Histonet] Detergent in heating antigen retrieval
