From: Preservation effects on wet weight, dry weight, and ash-free dry weight biomass estimates of four common estuarine macro-invertebrates: no difference between ethanol and formalin

Fig. 3

The AFDW of samples preserved in 70% ethanol (open circles) and 4% formalin (filled circles) for 10, 21, or 90 days in percent of AFDW of unpreserved samples in four macrofauna species. The AFDW of unpreserved samples (day 0, open triangles). Error bars represent 95% CI. A small offset (±1 day) has been applied between treatments with ethanol and formalin to avoid graphic overlap
