QUESTION : What replacement is available as a preservative/ disinfection for formaldehyde?

ANSWER: Methanol is used to hold the formaldehyde in solution. Formalin refers specifically to 37% aqueous formaldehyde and is not commonly used in funeral embalming but rather in the preservation of anatomical specimens.

A survey by the Dutch National Institute for Health and Environment (RIVM) has found “suitable alternatives” for most applications of formaldehyde in disinfectants and preservatives.

Companies should switch to alternative substances where possible, says the institute. They should also consider non-chemical alternatives, such as heat and UV radiation as a means of conservation.
