<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Tonya,</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">the cautionary remark for injecting muscle tissue was because of the pressure you build up within the tissue. When removing the syringe, the formalin tends to spray out in a high fountain again (depending on the pressure that build
up inside the tissue), and because usually you are closer with your head at the specimen when injecting, there is a risk that the formalin sprays into the face or eye. Therefore, it is advisable to keep the syringe more horizontally and not vertically when
injecting, and to cover the hole with a finger/thumb, when removing it. Also, depending on the 'rigidity' of the muscular tissue matrix and the pressure you apply, the injected fluid can disrupt the muscular matrix (tearing of the tissue) or formalin pockets
between the skin and the muscle could build up. <br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">For fixing the brain (and knowing the skull morphology of the specific species in advance), an easy way to reach the brain would be to inject the formalin through the orbit of the eye (not through the eye, but leading the syringe
besides the eye through the foramen). But applicability of this option surely differs from species to species.</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">As for the wrapping, it depends how you wrap; the specimens should stay moistened but don't need to be soaked (which you usually would not do anyway, because you would loose too much formalin for subsequent fixations - especially,
if you are limited with the volume of formalin that you can carry into the field to start with).</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Depending on the temperature, you loose a good proportion of your formaldehyde gas each time you open your container with the wrappings. If more specimens are included in a wrapping (which usually is the case), you would prefer
to but the small delicate ones into the middle and shield them with larger ones (so they would be still in the formalin vapour, but not in direct contact with the formalin cloth. </div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">The warmer it is, the fast is the damage. Usually, the damage I observed was when working on the Nile at extreme temperatures (i.e. > 40°C). Keeping the wrapped as cool as possible also helps (e.g. in the shade, in well ventilated
rooms, etc.).</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hope there are some useful ideas that help</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>

on fish, is especially relevant and detailed, and I think will be of great help.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:106%;font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Reading your email and your chapter, I am relieved as it is way easier to carry formalin to fix in the field and step up back at home
than to carry ethanol, and to worry about the timing of stepping up in the field. But to clarify, do you think I don’t need to worry about specimens getting overly fixed/darkened/acidified, if they are simply wrapped in formalin-soaked cheese cloth after fixation
in the field, without first being washed? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:106%;font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">While I have your (and others) attention, may I ask a few fixation related questions? I would love to hear what people have to say
about the fixation of vertebrate brains – I am always concerned that the brain is going to deteriorate because of poor/slow formalin penetration past the skull, and it is difficult to inject into (and hard to tell if damage is being done). Separately, I notice
that your chapter cautions against injecting formalin into muscle, but I have several manuals that do suggest injecting directly into muscle. I wonder if this is different for fish, or if there is a size at which the need to inject into muscle to avoid decay
outweighs the cost? <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">In general - and depending on the size of the specimens and the temperature (e.g. tropics), you need to be careful to not leave the specimens for too long in the formalin. Especially delicate structures in small fish (e.g. bony pores and
canals of the lateral line on the head) can corrode fast in the acidic formalin, leading, e.g. to an open canal system in lamp eye fishes - which are usually closed. Terrestrial vertebrates probably would be injected with formalin.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Usually (for specimens up to 15-20 cm - again, depending how bulky they are, and how many specimens are in your fixation box), up to three days should be enough. after this, specimens are removed and wrapped in formalin soaked cheese cloth
and kept wrapped in tightly sealing PE drums until back home, where you would stage them.

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">For carrying formalin, we usually carry more concentrated formalin in the allowed concentration (IATA) into the field and dilute there with clear/clean river water (osmolarity). Depending on where you are, keeping the cooling chain might
be an issue, and carrying dry ice or even LN is also not easy and restricted (dangerous goods).<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">We are interested in collecting more specimens (terrestrial vertebrates) to be preserved in spirit. We keep running up against logistical issues related to trying to avoid freezing
specimens and then prepping them when back in the lab. Typically we run trips that can take us into the field for weeks at a time. If we want to fix and preserve more than very tiny things while we are on a field trip, I think it means we must carry around
with us quantities of formalin and ethanol that are both potentially hazardous and that take up a lot of space. Alternatively, freezing specimens until we are home seems to me by far the easiest and most efficient thing to do from a logistics point of view,
but I know that it’s preferable to preserve specimens immediately after death, and not have an intermediate freezing period.
