[Histonet] microtome laceration not an exposure
Does anyone have something that I can show to nursing to explain why a microtome laceration is not an exposure? I can't get the fixed tissue explanation to sink in. Anyone else had issues with this?

[Histonet] slide filing cabinets
Dear Histo-netters: I'm looking to re-arrange my paraffin block storage; currently the plastic block cabinets are on a shelving unit. Does anyone have any experience with how well the old Tissue Tek plastic 6-drawer block cabinets stack - on top of each other? Can I safely do a stack of 5? And will they hold up well? Thanks in advance. Kim Kim Kolman Kimberly D. Kolman, HT, (ASCP) VA Eastern Kansas Health Care System Dwight D. Eisenhower VA Medical Center Histology - 115 4101 S. 4th St. Trfwy.
