I understand that the shelf life of formaldehyde solutions is affected by a
variety of reactions including oxidation, methanol formation,
polymerization, and condensation.  I am interested in finding out about the
shelf life of buffered 10% formalin (4% formaldehyde) solutions stored at 4
degrees C.
Thank you for your help.
