Fresh slides should be stored flat and covered to prevent dust and debris from falling onto the fresh Euparal.
Euparal can take up to 6 months to completely cure, although slides can be carefully handled after a day. Heating the slide
may help to cure the Euparal quicker, although it is not recommended to heat fresh slides as the genitalia and abdomen may
shift under the cover slip. Slides should be labeled with the collecting information from the specimen, the determination
(if known), and a unique identifier that ties the slide to the specimen. Pinned or otherwise preserved specimens should
receive a label with the same unique identifier.
