To All,
I work in a lab where I stain and coverslip everything by hand. I coverslip
under a fume hood so there isn't much of an issue there. The main issue is my
exposue to fumes while staining. I do not stain under a fume hood. My exposure
times to these c hemicals is increasing becuase
Is it so old-fashioned to use xylene in a fume hood?
We can't even use paraformaldhyde outside of the hood--Environmental Health
and Safety makes sure of that.
But we do research, maybe it's different in other types of labs.
