The quest for formaldehyde substitutes is motivated by two fundamental developments: the OSHA regulation standard declaring it hazardous and advocating its substitution with less dangerous chemicals and the fact that formalin is a poor preserver of nucleic acids. Among the non-alcoholic formalin substitute, glyoxal has been hailed as the best alternative. In this work, we showed that glyoxal-containing fixatives are not plausible polyvalent substitution options.
职业安全与健康管理局(OSHA)的监管标准宣布甲醛具有危险性,并提倡用危险性较小的化学品替代它;以及福尔马林对核酸的保存效果不佳这一事实。在非酒精性福尔马林替代品中,乙二醛被誉为最佳选择。在这项研究中,我们表明含乙二醛的固定剂并非合理的多价替代选择。
