Re: [Histonet] Temperature for Storing Slides and Blocks
I do not know of a standard, but you should make sure the storage temp is 5-10 degrees lower(maybe more depending on fluctuations in temp for the area). That would be < 120F degrees. Request the location Facilities department understands you need temperature control William DeSalvo From: Dessasau III, Evan via Histonet Sent: Wednesday, September 5, 2018 11:52 AM To: Blake Taylor Cc: 'histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu' Subject: Re: [Histonet] Temperature for Storing Slides and Blocks When we had our structure built we had cooling/heating units(2) put in a structure that is about 818sqft. 70F summer and 65 to 68F winter is what we aim for.

[Histonet] Temperature for Storing Slides and Blocks
Is there a good reference or standard on what the room temperature should be for storing slides and blocks? We have moved our long term storage out to our hospitals warehouse and I believe the building is getting much too hot. What temperature range is everyone using?
