Preservative
Carosafe™ is a holding solution for biological specimens. It contains no formaldehyde and is not a tissue fixative.
Most specimens in
Carosafe are first preserved with a formalin solution and then placed in formaldehyde-free
Carosafe. This produces a formalin-preserved specimen that, when dissected, minimizes student and educator
exposure to formaldehyde.

Packaging
Preserved animals shipped in
Caropaks have been processed with Carosafe and are as “odorless” as effective
fixation and preservation techniques allow. They are packaged in vacuum-sealed, double-layered plastic barrier
bags. Specimens may be packaged one specimen per pack or many per pack.
