Margaret,
There was a paperback scientific book published in the 60's that dealt with
the subject of shrinkage. I think it was called "Cytological Technique" by
Bruce Casellman. I may even have it stashed away somewhere at work.
The author measured the rate of penetration and shrinkage of different
fixatives. I seem to remember he also used blocks of gelatin as some of his
model "tissue".
This book would be a good place to start any study on shrinkage.
