DESCRIPTION
Sheep brains, although smaller than human brains, have similar features. A sheep brain dissection is perfect for anatomy studies. See for yourself what the cerebrum, cerebellum, spinal cord, corpus callosum, pituitary gland, and other parts of the brain look like. This plain preserved sheep brain specimen comes with the cranial nerve attached.
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.
