Dear Linda Moore, We have done several works of this kind using anoxia bubbles as well as vacuuing all the items from the collections to be transferred to the new deposits with much success regarding preserving both collections and deposits. You may find further info @ www.expm.com.pt Feel free to ask for any detailed information. Kind regards,
