[Nhcoll-l] buckets for specimens

[Haff, Tonya (NCMI, Crace)]

Hi all,

I need to order some buckets for storing larger fluid-preserved specimens in. Eventually we would like to go to stainless steel containers, but right now that's not an option.... Anyway, I am wondering if polypropylene buckets are acceptable in terms of archival quality (I realise they will eventually fail) and if not, if anyone has a better recommendation for a relatively cheap solution?

Thanks!

Tonya
