[Histonet] decalcifying solutions for skeletochronology

[Malcolm McCallum]

Hi, 
I am having some students do various skeletochronology projects with amphibians and reptiles.  I could just buy some decalcifying solution, but we have so many acids, I figured I would make some.  Any good recipes out there for decalcifying bone w/o heating?
