isosulfan Blue [CAS No 68238-36-8]is a dye used in imaging of breast cancer. the last reference available on this is
Colour index Vol 4 (1971), 4382

In one of the oldest procedures in the final step oxidation is done using Silver oxide(Ag2)0. Can some onesend me this reference ? Can some one suggest a substitute for Silver oxide, which is not a industrial reagent.
