Put them in a container at room temps cover with vodka. Shake occasionally to ensure good contact with the glands. Would you recommend this...if the you plan to sell to a lure maker ?

I recommend that method for private use and shelf storage of those glands. Small volumes of mink glands hold nicely in the same manner.
I prefer glands that are seasonal catch glands and frozen for the short term prior to sale. They can be refrigerated also short term until sale. If kept frozen they should be thawed to room temperature to determine accurate volume prior to sale.. Thanks, I've been freezing them to sell. But also noticed the freezer burn
