Preserved human body dissected to display the internal organs. It is showcased in the "Bodies revealed" exhibition ( Bulgaria)

---

In this exhibition, the bodies are prevented from decay by a means of an innovative rubberization process. The essence of the process is the replacement of water and fatty material in the cells of the body first by acetone and then by plastics such as silicone rubber, polyester or epoxy resin. The company that organize the exhibition received the cadavers for research from the Chinese government who donated them because all the bodies at the time of death had no close next of kin or immediate families to claim the bodies.
