OSHA, Joint Commission, CAP, ANY regulatory agency. Give them the lounge
microwave and get a new one for your break room immediately!! Fumes,
contamination on the outside of whatever it's in, etc. Not even mentioning if
it gets spilled.
But then again, our docs like to store Bot
Liquid Nitrogen guns.

Propar from Anatech works great for us. I believe it is still advisable to use
xylene in the cleaning cycle on the processors though. We had to go back the
other way a bit when our Doc wanted a tape coverslipper. Now he gripes about
the xylene smell. Hmmm.

I usually get out as much of the cystic material as I can without damaging the

The level of amylase in your saliva also depends on when you ate last. If
you're spitting on slides after you just ate, the reaction will be weaker as
the amylase will have been used up on lunch digestion. (also, you need to be
careful about having your lunch salad contaminate the slide... :)

Not to my knowledge. We have 3 derm/Mohs labs here in our system. There are
