Dear colleagues,
Due the nature of my work, I came in contact with some prospective "clients" that would like me to prepare some bone specimens.
My problem is that instead of being interested in morphologically corect pieces, their desire is to have perfect white and defattened pieces (aspect that I never considered the most important in the preparates that I provide my students)
So I started preparing some distal pig limbs, but, despite of my repeted boiling/detergent/washing soda baths and even benzenic fat extraction, drilling etc things do not look as expected (fat spots after 2-3 days of drying). the situation is not as bad with some dog skulls, but still some spots are visible after complete drying.
Can anyone suggest another simple but effective method?
Thanks in advance,
Alex
