Description

Formaldehyde is "carcinogenic to humans" based on sufficient evidence it can cause nasopharyngeal cancer and leukemia. Currently the Department of Anatomy, FMS,USJ is shifting away from the tradional Formaldehyde based cadaver preservation to non Formaldehyde based cadaver preserrvation to minimise the exposure to the Formaldehyde. 

Cadavers are preserved using a non-formaline - Phenoxyethanol‐based embalming technique for the trainings to improve practical skills or learn new surgical techniques through interactive case discussions and an open approach to innovations and the introduction of new techniques among surgeons and surgical trainees.
