Joe,
Yes. We are about to go xylene-free (though we are still planning on using if
for cleaning, because the feedback we got was that we still needed to clean the
processors with xylene or we would run into problems, and my supervisor heard
from people that they had to go back to xylene flushing

I have been using Clear Rite 3 for years on animal tissue in a VIP for overnite
processing and it is great. I get it from Fisher. There has never been a
problem with special stains but I use xylene on my stain lines.

Kelly,
Histo-Clear can be directly substituted for Xylene at every point in processing
and staining. It's completely non-toxic (even has a food grade rating), is
made from oranges, and smells delicious. You don't have to work in a hood and
it seems to make tissue less brittle than Xylene also.
I use the Shandon Excelsior and use an overnight run with Iso Alcohol and only
use Xylene in the cleaning cycle. Our Thermo Rep came out and set it all up for
us. No problems with the processing. I also use sub xylene in staining with a
few extra steps but no problems.

We have been processing without xylene on ThermoFisher Excelsior processors for
a couple of years. We go directly from 100% isopropyl alcohol into paraffin.
A thermo sales rep should be able to give you some literature on this.
When we first got the processors we did side by side validation
xylene substitutes also require more time than xylene

We use a product called pro-par, produced by Anatech. We don't use permount
routinely, but a few of our specials require it. We dehydrate and then
clear with the pro-par, and it works fine for those stains. It is much less
harsh on tissue than xylene; we have three VIP's, and our specimens sit i

You can view the MSDS for CBG Biotech's "Formula 83" xylene substitute at

It's described as a "naphthenic hydrocarbon blend".
I'd note the low flash point (7 C, 45 F), considerably lower than
xylene's. Other aliphatic or naphthenic (cycloalkane) m

There are two classes of xylene substitutes:
