We sometimes do that to collate loose labels as well. Usually we make small holes in the bags to allow ethanol to go through, but you still need to take care to ensure small parts can’t fall out. It’s easier to get the air bubbles out with the holes in the
bags. In cases where the parts are too small to risk it, we just seal them up or put them in a vial within the container (usually a jar rather than a drum though). And everything gets a label inside as well of course.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">I think this came up recently, but I can’t find the thread. I’m looking for a way to keep individuals separate in one larger jar of ETOH (for various reasons it is sometimes easier
than putting them each in their own jar). The fluid doesn’t have to be kept separate – the real issue is when there is either a) an animal its associated organ that has been dissected out or b) marsupials with pouch young that may fall out and get mixed up
in the future. I would like to be able to put them in separate plastic bags or something of that nature, all in the one jar. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated!<o:p></o:p></p>
