Making Gills Heamatoxylin - is it possible (Mar/29/2006 )

Yet another potentially stupid question inspired by money saving directives from my PI - is it possible to make Gills Haematoxylin for counterstaining slides using just regular haematoxylin powder... if so how???

thanks!!!

Google is a wonderful thing - i should have googled first - i got the formulation.

Sorry for the wasted post
