[NHCOLL-L:5061] Glycerin for C&S specimens

[Bentley, Andrew Charles]

Hi all

 

Does anyone know if there is an inherent difference in synthetic vs. vegetable based glycerin for use in C&S specimens?  I have just purchased some vegetable based at a very reasonable price and can see no visible difference but wanted to check.

 

Any help appreciated

 

Andy
