EMBALMING TOOLS EXAM QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS 100% PASS
centrifugal force machine - ✔✔a motorized injector used to create positive pressure as
required in vascular embalming.
hydroaspirator - ✔✔a type of preparation room equipment consisting of a suction
device which uses water pressure to create a vacuum for removing liquid materials
from the body
electric aspirator - ✔✔electrical suction devise which creates a vacuum to remove liquid
materials from the body
gravity percolator - ✔✔a method of creating injection pressure which consists of a
gravity bottle with tubing attached, that is suspended at a desired distance above the
point of injection. Gravity produces 0.43 lbs. of pressure per foot of height. (About a half
a pound.)
hand pump - ✔✔a hand operated, double action pneumatic pump which is used to
create pressure for embalming purposes and aspiration.

spores, and viruses
dry heat - ✔✔-burning with flame
-baking in an oven
-320-329 degrees F.
moist heat - ✔✔-not always effective
-used under pressure (like a pressure cooker)
-becomes very effective
-such as an autoclave 250°F/121°C
