I found this on Amazon, which appears to be the cheapest source of ethyl alcohol (a.k.a. ethanol) within my reach. The textbooks say that denatured ethyl alcohol works fine for preserving specimens, and technically that should be true for this as well ... except for the added ingredient “np acetate,” which is also called “normal propyl acetate” or just “propyl acetate.” Does anyone have experience with this stuff to know if it will destroy my critters?
