@ESOTERICKPLAN esp since with Universal Precautions the gloves and gown etc. create a barrier between skin to skin / tissue contact , which the M.E. removes after examination and clean-up !

@ESOTERICKPLAN - Esp since w/ Universal Precautions the gloves gown etc. worn by the M.E. would mean (s)he would never directly touch the body !

@ESOTERICKPLAN not sure I understand Question? or if question was serious - its been generally believedthat the adipose tissue changes due to an long exposure to basic fluids while lying in place
think of a nearly successful attempt to make lye soaps . Also they are saying Like tallow, or wax, or soap, because the tissue slightly resembles all of these items- to wash your hands after handling the body you would need to use - more / real (!?) soap
Hmmm, Could the medical examiner wash his hands with water only after an autopsy?
