Butyl decanoate is a colorless liquid. It is used to substitute hazardous compounds used in tissue processing and dewaxing, along with other compounds without impairing the morphology, staining characteristics, or diagnostic value of the tissue sections. It was used as an internal standard in the calculation of acid concentrations in the whole egg samplesButyl decanoate poses no health hazard and is biodegradable.
