MUNETON GOMEZ, César Alfonso  e  ORTIZ, José Alejandro. Preparation in Glycerin: A Technique for Prolonged Preservation of Bodies in Veterinary Anatomy. Rev. Med. Vet. [online]. 2013, n.26, pp.115-122. ISSN 0122-9354.

From ancient times, different techniques for the preservation and maintenance of anatomical specimens have been sought. Concurrently, the development of these processes and the use of substances other than formaldehyde in order to minimize the risk of exposure to chemical vapors and biological factors continue at present. Thus, having anatomical preparations with more durability, which retain the anatomical features and facilitate learning and teaching, as well as research in the discipline, are some of the objectives for strengthening anatomy labs. One such technique is the preparation in glycerin. The paper presents the results obtained with this application at the School of Agricultural Sciences from La Salle University, where different anatomical parts have been obtained for use in the process of teaching and learning about anatomy. In this paper, a historical review is made of the preparation of anatomical pieces, followed by the procedure performed and the findings during the development of the technique.
