<p class="MsoNormal">Has anyone developed policy or protocol for the receipt, treatment, and maintenance of eDNA fish voucher specimens? Would you share? The individual fish are small and the researcher recommends keeping each individual in a separate container
(how they were delivered) to prohibit cross contamination of DNA via the ethanol solution. That is understandable but will utilize lots of space and containers.<o:p></o:p></p>
