Storage of cryostat slides?

24 April 2017 0 4K Report

I'm planning to store some histology slides that I've made with a cryostat, normally I keep them frozen, but is there a way I can keep them long term without degradation at room temp? As that would be ideal for making slides to demo to students.

Thanks.
