Does anyone know of a test for arsenic that can be done "in house"?  We
have a number of bird and mammal specimens that were mounted in the 1930's
and 40's and may contain arsenic as a bug repellant.  I would like to test
them to see if they are contaminated.

Any references would be much appreciated.
