Co-injection/pre-injection fluids 2100
B-4 Body Conditioner and Neutralizer prepares the body chemically to insure uniform embalming results on all cases, regardless of the pH of the body. By adjusting each body to the same chemical state before arterial embalming, B-4 enables the embalmer to achieve the same results on each and every case. To do this, B-4 has to be versatile. It is just that! It is a neutralizer, a capillary wash, and a water softener, it is a blood solvent; it contains wetting agents; it is a preservative; it aids in controlling dehydration by permitting use of lower index fluid, or milder solutions of higher index fluid.
B-4 Body Conditioner and Neutralizer is a combination product which is used before (B-4) the arterial fluid, or in certain cases, with the arterial fluid as a modifier. It chemically produces a pH condition in the body which is slightly alkaline. By doing this, it neutralizes any abnormal body conditions which might have been caused by refrigeration, sudden death, antibiotics, etc. In addition, B-4 is compounded as an isotonic solution. This means that it cannot swell or shrink tissue, and will prevent thrombosis by eliminating active calcium ions from the blood.
MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL, B-4 contains a revolutionary delayed action formaldehyde combination. By combining formaldehyde with another complex, we can now control the release of formaldehyde, and also eliminate completely its objectionable odor. By delaying the preserving action of formaldehyde, we can give B-4 an index of 8, but completely prevent the astringent nature of formaldehyde from interfering with B-4's action as a neutralizer, body conditioner, and drainage aid. AFTER these actions are complete, and arterial embalming has begun, this amazing product begins to preserve with its own formaldehyde. IT PROVIDES ITS OWN INSURANCE FOR COMPLETE PRESERVATION.
B-4 Body Conditioner and Neutralizer is mild enough to use on babies and toddlers. When used with babies B-4 can be used as an immersion solution, 1 btl. to (1) gallon of water, or as packs, wet wrap with diluted B-4 solution. Toddlers can be injected with a solution of 1-1/2 btls. of B-4 to a gallon of water. 2-4 ounces of Tiss-U-Tone mixed with B-4 to be injected will soften the action of fluid and produce an excellent embalming.
