Mokele Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Ok, I'm not a chemistry buff, so I'm having a hell of a time trying to find some chemicals I need. I have, among the many, many dead animals in my apartment, many preserved in jars, and others still in the freezer awaiting jars. Additionally, I've found some protocols of clearing and staining specimens, so I want to give that a try. But there's two chemicals I just cannot seem to get in decent quantities. Maybe I'm just not finding the right stores. Anyhow, if anyone knows a source for Formaldehyde and Ethanol (lab grade, not reagent grade), especially in quantities of around 4L or so, I'd be very appreciative. Most of the traditional suppliers like Carolina and Wards won't seel to you if you aren't at a school. Mokele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mokele Posted October 7, 2006 Author Share Posted October 7, 2006 Excellent, thanks! I'll be sure to post pics if I ever get around to the clearing and staining. Mokele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyScience Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 You remind me of Bill Nye the science guy and his scheme to preserve dead things in jars hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
