Plastination Service1

Plastination is a method of preparing biological specimens that is useful for studying Anatomy. It is a process that involves replacing water and fat in biological tissues with a polymer material known as silicone. This technique was introduced by Dr. Gunther Von Hagen in Heidelberg, Germany, in 1978. Specimens that undergo plastination are referred to as plastinated specimens. These specimens become hard like plastic but still retain their original structure.
