Cleaning supplies may be stored under the sink, but since "things" have a way
of migrating there as well, we just have a blanket rule, nothing under the
sink. Of course, this would never occur in the Histology Department, LOL. The
space is actually locked off.

In my experience it is not that GP have a higher peroxidase level, it is frozen
sections in general that cannot be blocked with h202, unless they are fixed for
a long time in formalin. What are others experiences with h202 blocking on
frozen sections. I always used an IHC detection system
I agree!

Hi Maryann,
Nosy Med techs. I have bleach under my sink and never had a CAP inspector
say anything about it being there.

We don't store anything under the sinks in our lab per CAP regulations. I do
not understand why, nor do I have the specific checklist question at my
fingertips, but we always make sure everything is removed from under the sinks
at inspection time.

Cleaning supplies may be stored under the sink. Bleach is a cleaning agent. We
do it and no inspector looking there has ever said anything about it.

Hello Histonetters!
Has anyone heard of a regulation by CAP, CLIA or OSHA regarding commercial
bleach stored under the laboratory sink. My lab routinely has a gallon
container of dated/ bio-labeled commercial bleach stored under the sink for
cleaning purposes. Daily use to clean special stain
