Indications & Clinical Uses

Formaldehyde (Formalinum) pellets are primarily used for disinfection, preservation, and sterilization purposes. They are commonly employed in laboratories to preserve biological specimens, in medical settings for tissue fixation, and in industrial applications for sterilizing equipment. The 30% strength pellets dissolve readily to create formaldehyde solutions for these uses.

Side Effects

When dissolved in water, formaldehyde solutions derived from these pellets act as a broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent. They help prevent bacterial and fungal growth in preserved specimens and sterilized materials. The solution’s preservative properties maintain tissue integrity for microscopic examination.

Precautions & Warnings

Handle formaldehyde pellets in a well-ventilated area or under a fume hood to avoid inhalation of vapors. Wear protective gloves, goggles, and clothing to prevent skin and eye contact. Store pellets in a tightly sealed container away from heat and moisture to maintain potency.

Avoid Interactions

Formaldehyde solutions may react with oxidizing agents, strong acids, or alkalis, potentially causing hazardous reactions. Avoid mixing with ammonia or bleach, as this can produce toxic gases. Ensure proper ventilation when using formaldehyde in enclosed spaces.
