Has anyone ever used Formaldehyde 37% solution and what precautions should be taken?
I was recently introduced to Formaldehyde 37% solution for a specific medical treatment. I've heard it's a strong chemical used for disinfecting and preserving samples but also in some medical treatments. However, I am quite concerned considering it's a known carcinogen and can cause severe irritation. Has anyone here had experience using it, and what precautions should I take? How does one even dilute this stuff? Any tips would be greatly appreciated. I've heard it can be dangerous if not handled properly, and I want to make sure I'm safe.

Why does anyone still use formaldehyde? Terrible stuff.
I've used it in a lab setting for preserving samples. Always wear gloves and work in a well-ventilated area. Safety first!
Severe allergic reactions are a thing with formaldehyde. If you start feeling any tightness in your chest or throat, get to a hospital ASAP
You need to dilute it properly. I’ve seen people make the mistake of not doing it right and ending up with nasty burns. Always follow the dilution instructions to the letter.
Not only gloves and ventilation, you should also try to wear a mask. This isn't something to mess around with.
This stuff is hazardous. I’ve seen patients develop skin irritation and respiratory problems. Please, ask your doctor to explain all the risks.
If you're not sure about the dilution process, call your doctor's office or a nurse line. They can talk you through it.
