Default Re: Dissection in course?

When I was at the ULB (Brussels University), we had to dissect rats and rabbits...
In our fourth year, in toxicology labs, we would have to analyse samples to find out what they had been "poisoned" with; to make these samples as "realistic" as possible,an undisclosed "poison" would be added to some minced beef, sealed in glass jars,then left on a sunny windowsill, above a radiator, for a couple of weeks,"To mimic real-life decomposition of tissues encountered in forensic examinations"... Sometimes the jars exploded before we were due to start analysing their contents...
