To All, 



I work in a lab where I stain and coverslip everything by hand. I coverslip 
under a fume hood so there isn't much of an issue there. The main issue is my 
exposue to fumes while staining. I do not stain under a fume hood. My exposure 
times to these c hemicals is increasing becuase our volume is steadly 
increasing as well. I can no longer tolerate these fumes and am expirenc ing 
difficulty breathing and frequent headaches.What are labs that stain there 
slides  by hand doing (types of masks, hoods) to minimize their exposure. If 
you can recommed any specifics I would appreciate it. 



Thank you in advance 

Jenny
