[Nhcoll-l] optimal temperature

[Dietrich, Elizabeth]

You need to keep it below the flash point of the fluid so it depends on what fluid and what concentration you have.  Get the MSDS  for each concentration of each chemical and check the flammability/combustibility of each fluid.

Hi All,
What temperature would you recommend for the best conservation of biological collections kept in liquids (alcohol, formalin), squeletons and embalmed animals?
Many thanks, Marcela
