The objective of this paper is to give information on one alternative simple and economic clearing method, without aggressiveness for the material, which may be used for the investigation of different plant organs and tissues. Some years ago, a clearing technique of plant leaves began to test in the Laboratory of Comparative Morphology of Spermatophytes (LAMCE). It was developed in the search for a clearing method that would allow to us to maintain orientation of the material and was less aggressive for the small and delicate materials. As result a natural method with those characteristics was found.
