[Nhcoll-l] Glass jars for ethanol storage

[Bentley, Andrew Charles]

Ashley

We use jars and lids from Kols Containers (O'Berk) - https://www.bottlestore.com/glass-containers/glass-jars.html.  We use various sizes from 8oz to gallon jars and polypropylene lids with liners.  They are relatively inexpensive (except for shipping!!) and hold up really well in ethanol collections.  We have been using them for over 25 years.  Attached is a fairly recent price list of the various sizes we order.

Good afternoon Nhcoll-l Community,

I am seeking suggestions for which type and for suppliers of glass jars for ethanol preserved fish and amphibian collections.
Thank you so much.
