Episode 7: Jaundice Embalming Redefined
In this episode of Mortuary Masterclass, we tackle one of embalming’s most complex and nerve-wracking challenges — jaundice cases. These are the bodies that make even seasoned embalmers pause: delicate tissues, unstable chemistry, and that ever-looming risk of a yellow-to-green discoloration.
We’ll explore the science behind bilirubin and its transformation into biliverdin, uncover why formaldehyde often worsens discoloration, and reveal how glutaraldehyde changes the chemistry — delivering stable preservation without compromising natural tone.
From understanding pigment behavior to applying modern arterial solutions like Champion’s JAUN-DIAL and Alpha Arterial 24, this episode bridges theory and practice, giving embalmers the knowledge to handle jaundice cases with confidence, clarity, and control.
Whether you’re in the prep room or the classroom, this is your guide to mastering one of embalming’s most unforgiving tests — and achieving results you can stand behind.
