Hi all
I have a problem!
When I put some of my samples into the 70% alcohol, sometimes developed fungus on them!!
How can I clean them? Is there any way??
I'll so thanks for your advice!

If they have developed fungus, then cleaning them with fine forceps may be the easiest way. But I'm surprised that they have developed fungus in 70% alcohol. Are you sure that is the concentration? Remember that putting a large number of flies into 70% alcohol will lower the concentration, as the body fluids dilute it.

Hi Tony! Thanks a lot for your advise.
According your advice, I guess either alcohol was evaporated and my container had a problem or, water had a problem. After this problem I put my samples into the 96% alcohol.
I tried, to separating fungus from those body by forceps, but their body damaged.
I thought there are some ways or some materials for clean them...
Therefore I think there isn't any way for repair samples, at least so far!!!!?
However, I'm so thanks to you for your attention and your advise.
