title: [Appropriate concentrations of antimicrobial agents in used cadaver pools].
abstract: Samples for microbiologic culture were taken from 17 cadaver and 4 cadaver pools in the Department of Anatomy of Gülhane Military Medical Academy (GMMA), Military Faculty of Medicine. Samples were inoculated on bacteriologic and mycologic media and were incubated in aerobic and 10% CO2 atmosphere conditions. From 3 of 4 pools containing different concentration of phenol and formalin, pathogenic bacteria that might be present in normal flora and saprophytic fungi were isolated. In the guidance of these results, in order to keep the cadavers for a long time and laboratory safety, use of formalin and phenol not less than 5% and 4% concentrations of the cadavers respectively and the pools should be taken into consideration.
