Abstract:

Background: Stabbing with kitchen knife is a common method of homicide in Nigeria; and embalming of decomposing stabbed cadavers has been a challenge for morticians in Nigeria, because of the impairment of embalming fluid through the damaged arteries. The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of an embalming mixture containing formalin, methanol and water on stabbed early decomposing carcasses using porcine analogues. Methods: Two infant pigs were used for this study. Animals were sacrificed and allowed to reach the early stage of decomposition before embalming. Cervical arteri

Abstract:

Formalin is one of the commonest embalming fluid used in modern embalming. Methanol can also be mixed with formalin in order to prevent the precipitation of formaldehyde to paraformaldehyde. Methanol is also a good preservative. Strangled bodies remain one of common homicides received at funeral homes in Anambra state, Nigeria. Therefore, the objectives of this study are to observe the early decomposition activities in Anambra state; use an embalming mixture containing formalin, methanol and water to arrest it; and document the techniques used to achieve it.

Embalming as art and science of preserving dead bodies with postponing decomposition using embalming fluid. The method of preservation of cadavers is natural and non-natural. This study involves an extensive search of journal articles to access the trend of development of embalming technique that was developed after many trials and errors. In this paper, we have briefly discussed about the past, present and upcoming future technique of cadaver preservation with recent advances and modification.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND Embalming is the process of treating a dead human / animal body with a chemical to protect the body from microbial spoilage and to renovate the physical appearance. Usually, it involves using formalin-based solutions. Although there are many embalming devices, most of them are heavy to lift, expensive and electrically operated. These types of electrically operated cadaveric injectors are widely used for embalming as it provides complete fixation (up to the distal parts of the limbs), and helps to save time. This study focuses on comparing a cost-effective, portable, ecofriendly emba

Abstract Embalming of the dead is more common in the United States than anywhere else in the world. Battles far from home during the Civil War with concern for contagion from dead bodies being shipped home, compelled President Lincoln to direct the troops to use embalming to allow the return of the Union dead to their homes. Viewings were common with war heroes and culminated with the viewing of Lincoln himself. In the 20th century embalming became a tradition despite substantial evidence indicating environmental and occupational hazards related to embalming fluids and carbon dioxide generated

Formalin is the most widely used preservative in anatomical embalming. It produces consistent results in terms of the prevention of autolysis and putrefaction at an affordable cost. It is a known carcinogen having several health hazards. Strict adherence to safety protocols is required to minimize its toxic effects. Regular monitoring of formaldehyde concentration in the dissection hall and embalming room will ensure remedial measures at the earliest.

ABSTRACT Background: Surgical and anatomical training has been found to be most optimally simulated in a cadaver than any other available methods. Soft embalming methods have made the bodies more ‘lifelike’ and better suited for training. The widely accepted soft embalming techniques, including Thiel embalming, are designed for temperate climates. Their use in tropical locations has been found to be associated with poor short-term and long-term preservation of the bodies. In fact, adequate reports from tropical countries on effective methods for soft embalming are lacking. Materials and Method

Although embalming is traditionally considered an Egyptian custom, ancient sources suggest that in imperial Rome the practice was not employed by Egyptians or Egyptianized Romans alone.

Within the social structure of Rome's dead these preserved corpses certainly occupied a distinct place. Yet who were they and why were they embalmed? It is argued here that various factors allowe

In this sense, modern embalmers based their skills and methods on experimental medicine, turning the anatomy of blood vessels, physiology of circulation, and composition of blood into a circuit that allowed embalming fluids to move throughout the corpse.

Abstract:

Formalin, a widely used embalming fluid in the preservation of cadavers, poses significant health risks to anatomists, medical students, and the environment. This review article evaluates alternative natural and chemical substances for embalming fluid in cadaveric dissection. We conducted a comprehensive literature search on PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, focusing on alternative embalming fluids in the past 20 years. The main outcome of interest was the effectiveness of alternative fluids in preserving cadavers for dissection. The review identified several alternatives, including Thiel's

The ‘embalming plate’ is a type of artefact that is mentioned quite frequently in the literature on ancient Egyptian mortuary practices. However, it has not been well studied so far. This paper is a preliminary corpus that can serve as a basis for further studies of this kind of objects, as an open list that can be expanded in the future. This corpus is divided into four lists: A) pieces removed from the mummies with which they were associated; B) doubtful examples; C) items discovered by the x-raying or scanning of mummies; D) embalming plates currently in two display cases in Room 22 at the

Abstract:

Jáchym Topol's The Devil's Workshop [Chladnou zemí] is a dystopian novel depicting the legacies of Nazi and Communist oppression on Czech and Belarusian histories amidst the boom of Holocaust tourism industry. I propose in this paper that the embalmed bodies exhibited at the fictional Devil's Workshop Museum can be regarded as extreme and horrendous manifestation of the somatechnics of embalmment, which nevertheless deconstructs the fundamental principles of embalming. Embalming is an ambivalent act which vacillates between life and death. It renders the body a ‘twilight zone’ of power negotia

Abstract:

The development of cadaver preservation has been fast-paced. The subtraction of formalin dose in embalming has been used since many negative factors were found in long-term usage. Preventing putrefaction progress on the cadavers, ensuring no risk of infection when in contact with a dead body, preventing hardening and retention of color tissue and organs, preventing desiccation, inhibit fungal or bacterial growth are the main goals of embalming for anatomical purposes. The new formula has been developed by using low-dose formalin, ethanol, phenol, and sodium chloride (Modified Low-Dose Formalin

Biochemical investigations were carried out on the embalmed head of Nebiri (Museo Egizio, Turin; S-5109)—an 18th Dynasty Ancient Egyptian dignitary—and on the canopic jar containing his lungs (Museo Egizio, Turin; S. 5111/02) with the aim of characterizing the organ’s (lung) specific paleo-proteins and of identifying the compounds used in his embalming “recipe”. The application of a functionalized film method allowed us to perform a non-invasive sampling. Paleo-proteomics confirmed the presence of lung tissue-specific proteins (organ specific) as well as the presence of proteins linked to seve

Abstract:

Embalmers are exposed to many pathogens present in bodily fluids. However, the risk posed by these pathogens has yet to be defined in terms of the nature of the hazard and the intensity of the exposure. The objective of this project was to monitor the exposure of embalmers to biological particles in real time and to characterize the microbiota found in the air during embalming activities in three thanatopraxy laboratories. An innovative approach, using a laser-induced fluorescence aerosol spectrometer (WIBS-NEO), made it possible to measure the concentrations and particle size distributions of
