[Nhcoll-l] Preserving fresh tree cookies

[Kate Pocklington]

Hey all,

We have a bunch of freshly cut 'tree cookies', we're planning to use the PEG method to preserve them for display. Does anyone have any tips to can share, such as whether to band the cuts first etc?
Also, for ordering PEG which is the best molecular weight is best to go for?

Cheers and tgif :)
