How does everyone handle the use of recycled formalin in regard to tissue
processors? OK to use on the processors? We have just recently installed the
Creative Waste formalin recycler and I am looking for guidelines from those who
have experience in this area.
Much thanks, Dorothy Webb
Has anyone had any quality issues (or any issues) when using recycled formalin?
Thanks.

Is anyone using recycled formalin for primary fixation of either surgical or
autopsy tissue? Thanks.
