|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Categories of embalming chemicals | Atertial, cavity, supplemental, accessory, sealers, pack applications
🗑
|
||||
| Arterial fluids | Index, aldehyde/non-aldehyde, color, firming or non firming, dehydrating or non-dehydrating, special purpose
🗑
|
||||
| Indexes of arterial | Low - 10-20
Medium- 20-28
High- 30-36
🗑
|
||||
| Special purpose arterials | Jaundice, high index, dehydrating, tissue gas, germicidal, infant
🗑
|
||||
| Preservatives | CHemicals that stop saprophtic bacteria by rendering unsuitable the media upon which they thrive which will arrest decomp
🗑
|
||||
| Aldehydes | Formaldehyde, Gluteraldehyde
🗑
|
||||
| Advantages of gluteraldehyde | less irritaing and dehydrating, less firming, good germicide, oshas does not apply
🗑
|
||||
| Disadvantages of gluteraldehyde | more expensive, more tests are needed
🗑
|
||||
| Alcohols | Methyl, ethyl, isopropyl
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| Humenctants | Increase embalmed tissues ability to retain moisture
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| Buffers | Stabilize pH
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| Special fluid (company definitions) | High index, dehydrating, firming used in cases with high preservative demands,
🗑
|
||||
| Cavity Fluids | High index for aspirating viscera, conatins stronger versions as arterial fluids. DO NOT DILUTE
🗑
|
||||
| Supplemental fluids | Pre-injection/ co-injection
🗑
|
||||
| CO injection | Added to arterial
🗑
|
||||
| Pre injection | injected before areterial, also called primary injection fluid, cappilary wash, body conditioner
🗑
|
||||
| Pre injection fluids do | clear body of blood, address acidity, rehydrates and expands system
🗑
|
||||
| Advantages of pre injection | Improved diffusion, rehydrates, clears lividity
🗑
