Dissecting different preserved specimens is an excellent way for elementary, middle, and high school students to learn about animal anatomy - and our dissecting sets make it easier than ever to get started.
This fish dissection kit comes with a high-quality preserved perch, plus all the dissection tools and lab supplies you'll need to do your dissection: full-color photographic dissection guide, scissors, scalpel, and a dissection tray. Home Science Tools recommends using disposable gloves for all dissections. Note: Specimens are initially preserved with a formaldehyde solution, the best animal tissue fixative.
The formaldehyde is then displaced first with water and finally with a glycol solution to produce a moist, low-fume specimen which will not decay over time. Once the original package is opened, use specimen within one month. For best results, observe the following storage procedures: Store specimen in heavy-duty, zip-lock bags to minimize drying between dissections.
Specimen will slowly dry out or become contaminated in zip-lock bags; add a teaspoon of Specimen Holding Fluid to retain moisture. Freezing or refrigeration is not necessary and may damage fragile tissues.
