Co-injection/pre-injection fluids S-6105
Hydrotone adjusts all bodies to an alkaline state and a uniform appearance is obtained. One to two ounces of Hydrotone may be added to the arterial fluid.
Hydrotone should not be used with Ultra-Glo. Never use Hydrotone with cavity fluid or on posted cases.
Hydrotone generally should be used on acid bodies. Before rigor mortis a body is usually acidic. After rigor mortis a body is usually alkaline.
Some bodies may be found to be extremely alkaline. Hydrotone should not be used in such cases. If injected in such cases, firming action will be extremely low. This can be corrected by injecting 8 to 16 ounces Ultra-Glo in a half-gallon solution. If Ultra-Glo is not available add 6 to 12 ounces Nitrol or other strong cavity fluid to the arterial fluid used on last injection.
By using alkaline injections a vast improvement in cosmetic effect and appearance will result. Not only will a definite improvement in preservation and distribution be obtained, but every case will have the improved appearance so desired.
