Embalming is a process that has been practiced all over the world, in different ways throughout much of history. Until the early 20th century, arsenic was usually used as an embalming fluid, until it was discovered that less toxic chemicals could be used. These days, the body is thoroughly washed using disinfectant and germicidal solutions, then a 4-step embalming process is carefully executed using a specialized solution called Formalin.
