B-5 Fixative

From:Fran Adams

One of our Doctors and Pathology Attendant addressed an interesting question 
on Friday.  They asked where the name B-5 originated from for the fixative, 
B-5. Perhaps it's derived from the chemical make up of Mercury.  I didn't 
know the answer but thought that someone in the Histology World would.  Just 
a curious question, if anyone knows the answer, I'll relay it to my 
Pathologist.

Thanks,
