<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I am looking for some information regarding acrylic boxes for the storage of medical collection anatomical specimens preserved in glycerol. The objects are still used for teaching and are handled by medical students.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">In the past some of the boxes may have been topped up with alcohol and a few of the boxes have begun to warp and leak.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I would like to hear if anyone, especially those based in Europe, have a supplier that has custom made such boxes for their collection.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I am also, keen to hear tips and advice from those with experience making their own acrylic boxes for such specimens.
