HOW TO USE THE FLUIDAs a pre-injection, use Solvol at a dilution of 6 to 8 ounces per gallon of diluted arterial fluid. Use 1/2 to 1 gallon of diluted fluid to clear the body, and then continue with arterial fluid injection. As a bleach Solvol may be injected hypodermically into the affected area or may be used in a pack over the area. Packs should be covered with plastic to improve penetration into the tissue and to control fumes. To embalm infants, a dilution of 8 to 10 ounces of Solvol per gallon of diluted arterial fluid is recommended. The concentration will vary with age, the condition of the body and the cause of death. Initial injection down a leg will help to determine the proper concentration and if additional dye will be of benefit.
