Industrial formaldehyde permanently crosslinks delicate tissue proteins
There is a very specific biological reason dead biological specimens are aggressively stored in jars of clear liquid. Formaldehyde molecules act like microscopic handcuffs, violently locking adjacent proteins completely together in a process called crosslinking. This totally prevents the tissues from breaking down naturally, severely freezing the biological structures in time and completely halting any organic decay.
