Excerpt from Laboratory Exercises in Botany: Designed for the Use of Colleges and Other Schools in Which Botany Is Taught by Laboratory Methods
Preparation of Dried Material for Study. - Many dried mate rials, such as some medicinal roots, rhizomes, etc., may be studied quite satisfactorily in the dried form by making longitudinal and transverse sections and applying the appropriate tests. But more frequently the dried material is too hard, too friable, or too brittle to be satisfactorily studied in this way, and some preliminary treatment is necessary.
