Formaldehyde Levels and the Indoor Air Quality of an Anatomy Dissection Hall with Different Ventilation Setups.

During anatomy dissection, the release of formaldehyde (FA) from cadavers and embalming fluids can negatively affect the well-being of students and staff. The exposure of students, staff, and technicians to FA in the dissection hall is a concern. To address this issue, a study measured the FA and air quality (CO and Total Volatile Organic Compounds- TVOC) with different ventilation setups: natural, fan-based, and air-conditioned.
