Hi, I know this topic has been discussed time-to-time but I was just approached with questions regarding the formalin cubes that are supplied to our OR and L&D departments. OR has a small room where 2.5 gal. cubes are kept under a hood. They set on a metal stand in a plastic tray. They would like to keep a layer of spill-absorbing material in the plastic tray to neutralize any drips or spills. Is this advisable? L&D has 5 gal. formalin cubes that are kept beside a sink in an area with no hood. If there are any drips or leaks they are washed down the drain. Any opinions on this system of storage? I would appreciate hearing how other places handle these types of storage issues. Thank you, Gale
