Dissection Kit for Apologia Human Body

Get a better understanding of anatomy with this kit that contains the specimens needed for the dissection labs in Apologia's The Human Body: Fearfully and Wonderfully Made advanced biology course. Includes a 10-13" double injected fetal pig, a sheep heart, and a cow eye. Order dissection tools and a dissection pan separately if you don't already have them.

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.

HST Specimen Guarantee

In sealed, original packaging, our preserved specimens are guaranteed to remain fully preserved and free of decay for six months from the date of purchase.

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.
