          <p class="MsoNormal">to me this looks like storage for lab
            consumables, and even for this purpose you may need to
            prefer (closed) chemical cabinets instead of open storage
            (depending on the lab chemicals).<o:p></o:p></p>

          <p class="MsoNormal">For ordinary fluid preserved collections,
            the recommendation is not to go below 75 ml fluid volume per
            container. Depending on the quality of the closures and the
            environmental settings in the storage area, containers below
            75 ml may dry up fast, if the seal/closure is bad. Depending
            on the number of jars, you would need to adjust your
            monitoring regime to spot evaporation losses and to prevent
            damage to objects stored in smaller containers.<o:p></o:p></p>

            recommends, the drawers are equipped with grids or boxes
