  3. Must Scott's Tap Water Substitute be diluted with deionized water, and must the solution be prepared fresh for each day?

    1 answer
    1. The Scott's Tap Water Substitute Concentrate should be diluted with deionized water. When using distilled water, it is advisable to check the pH after preparing the 1X solution. Alternatively, the solution prepared with distilled water can be used to blue tissue sections after staining with hematoxylin. If the nuclei do not turn blue, it may indicate that the pH of the solution is not alkaline enough to convert the nuclei color to blue.
