Animal preservation for anatomy teaching has been required to replace formaldehyde and phenolwhich represent a health hazard to humans. A comparative study of embalming solutions with partial replacement of formaldehyde and phenol with sodium chloride and ethanol was evaluated in mouse cadavers over an 18-month period. Twelve adult mouse carcasses were divided into six groups of two mice each. After openingthe mouse’s skin,the internal organswere removed and preserved with the remaining cadavers by freezing (Group I, control group) or in the respective embalming solution (Groups II to VI) and examined after 3, 6, 12 and 18 months. For the embalming …

The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of ethanol and acetone in dehydration of canine bodysheets before preservation in resin for a 16-week period. A 10-kg male dog which died of the respiratory failure waspreserved in 10% formalin via common carotid artery at room temperature for 7 days prior to being kept in a freezerat -250C for 7 days. The body of the dog was cut into 2.5-cm-thick sheets with a band saw. The body sheets wereseparately dehydrated for 3 days with either acetone or ethanol. In this study, the color of muscles and fat fromacetone-dehydrated sheets …
