ABSTRACT:
A mercury and formaldehyde free histological fixative. The fixative employs standard non-toxic components comprising one or more alkanols, one or more diols and triols such as ethylene glycol, and one or more acids such as acetic and formic acid in an aqueous solution. A salt of a metal ion having an oxidation state of at least two may be added as an optional mordant. Osmotically active substances such as sodium chloride may be used as an option as desired to control osmotically induced cell volume changes.
