I recently came across a bottle of Formaldehyde 37% Solution 3785ml in my storage room. I know it's a strong chemical used for preserving biological specimens and as a disinfectant. However, I'm not sure about the safe handling and disposal procedures. Can anyone share their experience with this chemical? What precautions should one take while handling it? Also, I've heard it can cause severe skin and lung irritation. Should I be worried about long-term exposure? Also isnt formaldehyde used in so many products, isn't it dangerous?
