Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9812039A1] The method of transferring biological specimens onto leather by using a specialized single plate as discosed in U.S. patent 3,298,881 entails wetting a selected section of leather with water and applying the smooth side of the wetted leather on the indented biological imprints provided by the above mentioned plate. Then, by using a press which applies equal amounts of pressure to the entire surface of the afore mentioned plate and leather, an image of the biological specimen is transferred onto the leather itself. The leather is permitted to dry, thus, setting the transferred image, and stain or dye is applied to the leather bringing out the intricate details of the image of the biological specimen, thus creating a flexible 3-D specimen for scientific study or other endeavors.
