Hello everyone,
I'm hoping someone can help me. We have a small room in the lab where the coverslipper and stainer are. We have the coverslipper attached to a fume hood which is attached to the ceiling to exhaust the fumes out of the building. The stainer has a charcoal filter inside the unit. We have an air purifier to help with ventilation and we have a fume hood to work under as well. With all these precautions, this area still gets a good amount of fumes lurking around for people to feel uncomfortable with. We do the badge monitoring and are always under the limits, but I still would like to get it better. What kind of ventilation solutions have you done to help minimize the fumes and/or do you have a contact of a Certified Industrial Hygienist? I would like one to come and take measurements or monitor the fumes in this area. Thanks in advance, Paula Lucas Lab Manager Bio-Path Medical Group _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
