RE: [Histonet] Decalcification and marking
Plastic fasteners sound good during decalcification, and I'm sure what I am

processing. Or at least test them against your clearing agent. I staple the
bags for processing. I don't try to remove the staples after processing,
just cut the bags open with scissors.
