    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">adding to my and the emails of Andy,
      John and Paul, the way Rob describes it surely is the best way to
      do it. In case that you have many small fishes in the same jar, we
      usually put tissued specimens in open glass tubes in the same jar
      and add a individual tissue ID into this glass tube. This helps to
      find tissued vouchers quickly and prevents (hopefully) loss of
      tags (which are hard to apply to such tiny fishes without damaging
      them anyway). We leave the tubes open to avoid plastics inside the
      storage fluid as these may release chemical compounds such as
      softeners.</div>

    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">Storage at room temperature for fluid
      stored tissue samples is not recommended, because you cannot

        <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">The DNA work
            was done at another university, one that does not have
            collections to maintain vouchers. The DNA was collected and
            analyzed from these vouchers, the paper written and
            submitted for publication, and the author/researcher wants
            to deposit the individual fish as vouchers. Shoal Chub (<i>Macrhybopsis
              hyostoma</i>) are small, the largest maybe 5 cm long. My
            institution does not have any of the removed tissues that
            were analyzed for DNA, nor any products from that DNA, only
            the fish themselves. The researcher’s preference is for
            individual containers for each specimen should someone want
            to extract new tissue for DNA. Doing so would mean an
            approximately 10X increase in shelf space and material
            necessary to maintain these vouchers. Since we do not have
            the DNA samples or products, and are holding only the fish
            themselves, I submit that we should individually package
            each fish with its information but maintain all the samples
            from the same collecting locality in joint jars (4 jars
            instead of 35). Yes, cross-contamination would potentially
            occur between those jointly held samples, but since they are
            from the same collecting site cross-contamination would also
            be true in the natural environment where they were
            collected. Being small one option is to stuff them into
            individual tubes and put them in the freezers with tissues
            from other specimens where the vouchers are at this
            institution. That might work in this case but doesn’t lend
            itself  to ready access for species verification, nor does
            it function well as policy or protocol should another
            project produce larger numbers of samples from larger
            species.

                will get contamination of the alcohol around the

                all together because protein is extracted over time by
                the alcohol (for example, see von Endt 1994, "Spirit

                contamination would affect the DNA in the fish specimen
