A practical introduction to histological methods for students and practitioners
.....
The fluid used must be one which will not itself injure the specimen, and which can be thoroughly removed by washing, so that it may not interfere with staining operations. The specimens should be kept while hardening in wide mouthed bottles, on the bottom of which a little cotton wool or tow has been laid. This allows the hardening fluid to come freely in contact with the under surface of the pieces of tissue, and prevents their being flattened against the hard glass bottom.
The hardening fluid requires changing occasionally. This should always be done at the end of twenty-four hours, in order to get rid of any deposit of blood, &c., that may have accumulated. Besides this, the tissue when placed in the fluid contained a good deal of water which will have diluted it and consequently an early change is desirable. Afterwards the fluid requires to be changed only as often as it becomes turbid, or any deposit occurs, usually about once a week.
