[Nhcoll-l] Fluid-preserved fungi

[Berber van der Meulen]

Dear all,

We are planning to repot our fluid-preserved fungi collection to more
suitable containers. Most specimens are currently preserved in formalin.

Of course we'll be following the usual health and safety measures for
working with formalin (gloves, fume hood), but I was wondering if people
have experience with fluid-preserved fungi and could give some tips on what
to expect?

Are there for example any additional protective measures we should take
regarding toxins that have leached into the fluid etc.?

Thank you so much in advance,
