Any extra-dried skin can shed cells. The best option is having your HTs using some skin lotion (like Keri lotion) to prevent shedding of cells. René J.

I'm leaning towards "thumbing blocks" with an ungloved hand but don't know for sure. Other possibilities I've come up with are dandruff from the head or uncovered arms. I hate to see our histologist work in a complete tyvek outfit so I'm searching for clues. Thanks to all.
