Specimen Processing

Background

This is a place holder for content yet to come based on discussions with technicians, scientists & Collections Curators.

In all likelihood, procedures will vary wildly with taxa, discipline, institution and even individual research groups. Our goal is not to document all of the standard operating proceedures (such as they are). Rather to understand them in sufficient depth to identify constraints which we can help remove.
