Re: Disposal of used glass slides & paraffin blocks

From:Vicki Gauch

Anita,
 When we discard of blocks we put them in red biohazard bags and then in hard fiber boxes and dispose of them as we do our tissue specimens. For glass slides we use the large sharps containers.

Hello everyone!!  I was just needing some feed back on how everyone disposes
of their stained glass slides and paraffin blocks. I am in a "fued" with a
fellow co-worker on the proper way to dispose of them.

This subject has probably been addressed before on histonet but, I would
appreciate your input!!
