Does anyone know of a good substitute for substitutes for formaldehyde
and glutaraldehyde.  Looking to preserve microbial cells in aqueous
samples, without getting cell autofluorescence (which glut sometimes
causes).  Formaldehyde seems to cause reduced direct counts of our
cells.

Any leads much appreciated.
