The gate maybe an elevator lift-entrance for wheeled chairs...

LOL

Good work Motts < < > >

The liquid might be formaldehyde, or another fixing/preservative agent.

I get the impression that these samples weren't intended for long-term storage because the paper label in the neck of the bottle would have prevented it making an air-tight seal [which is why you can see the level of the fluid has dropped, the tissue should be totally submerged].

Shawn: even if the tissue still held viable DNA that you could clone [massively unlikely], there's a HUGE chance that all you're gonna get is a big lump of cancer.

I don't get why people are so freaked out about this. Okay, so it's a bit morbid, but the people that gave the samples aren't needing those bits of flesh any more. do you start sobbing when you see an eyelash that's fallen out, or toenail clippings? it's dead, it's useless, and yeah, maybe there could be more sympathy involved in the storage, but then, the people that left them thre weren't exactly expecting a buncha people to be snooping round taking photos, were they?

again, it makes no difference whether they're 'abandoned' or in boxes in a storage room. they're just bits of diseased, dead meat.

The path lab i worked in had huge rooms like these. but the worst was the wet samples in bottles, jars, even buckets. whole diseased organs floating in preservation fluid in huge plastic tubs, all stacked up. nasty.

it's just bits of meat set in wax. Okay, so it might be human meat, but it's not gonna hurt anyone, unless they like, melt it and eat it, and even then they'd probably be fine. I doubt the people that the samples are from are affected by whether they're lying around in an abandoned hospital or lying around in a storage room somewhere.

Some funnels, a couple of plastic bottles/beakers, a conical flask and a few measuring cylinders.
The red case in front holds microscope slides, i think.

this looks shockingly similar to the lab i work in at the moment!

Thanks Motts For another wonderful Gallery to see. JackieB where are u.

Those would make nice Nug jars.

This is the most disturbing gallery I've ever seen here. I don't know what else to say...........

............................... :-(

.....(shakes head in speechless awe at the sheer IDEA of "pieces" of so many people just left abandoned out in the open.....). This is sick.

GEEEZZZ!!! It is absolutely UNBELIEVABLE to me that this stuff is just lying around!!!! WTH????? How could they possibly do that???

omgmcgriddles: You said it before I did. The plastic flowers are depressing :-(. Makes the person's life seem "artificial" or "temporary", or "not really real". This room makes me sad, too.
