Storage of tissue in alcohol won't affect the presence or reactivity of
aluminum. Formalin should not have a deleterious effect either, if it is
properly buffered. I believe long-term storage in acidic formalin (or any
acidic solution) might dissolve aluminum out of tissue, though I don't have
any reference or direct experience to corroborate this.
