Storage of tissue in alcohol

From:Mark Elliott

I have just been reading through the archives about long-term storage of
formalin-fixed tissues.  Everyone appears to be using 70% ethanol, or
ethanol and glycerine.  I was wondering if it is possible to store the
tissue in 70% isopropyl alcohol instead of ethanol?

Any information would be greatly appreciated.
