Re: methyl carnoys

From:

Geoff McAuliffe

It is called "Methacarn" and was reported some years ago by Holde Putchler and her research group. You are correct, substitute methanol for ethanol in Carnoy. I suspect that the details can be found an a good Histotechnology/Microtechnique text.

Good day everyone,

Has anyone out there heard of methyl Carnoys? I am assuming that it is Carnoys where the ethyl alcohol is replaced with methyl. It has been mentioned in a protocol that is used for perfusing mouse kidneys for renin.

Any information would be helpful and if anyone has a recipe for methyl Carnoys would be great.
Thanks in advance!
