Survey on gross anatomical tissue quality. Tissue preservation, colorfastness, the pliability of the tissues, and their potential to improve student learning outcomes when used as study material was assessed for formaldehyde (FA), ethanol–glycerin (Eth), phenoxyethanol (PE), and Thiel‐embalmed tissues. Significant difference (^a P ≤ 0.05, ^b P < 0.001) was found especially when comparing FA‐ and Thiel‐embalmed tissues. Likert scale rating: 1 = perfect/well suited/fully agree and 5 = poor/completely unsuitable/fully disagree.
