Neo-Clear® is an aliphatic hydrocarbon mixture that can substitute the same applications as xylene in the histo-medical lab - histoprocessing, deparaffination and clearing after dehydration in staining process. It is not necessary to change methods or incubation times when using Neo-Clear® instead of xylene. As the evaporation rate of Neo-Clear® is lower then xylene, it has less odor and the disturbing smell in the lab is reduced significantly. Neo-Clear® is more sensitive against water in solvents (turbidity can occur), thus, it is essential to avoid technical qualities of solvents.
