Folks,

Can anyone recommend how-to guides to assessing and triaging antique microscope slides? I have a ton of them to deal with right now. I need to know how best to clean and store them, how to revive (if possible) hardened fixatives, etc. These are mostly polychaete and other worm samples, including sections and jaw parts, and are anything from 50 to 140 years old.
