No one should be using B5. If your pathologist won't take "No" for an answer, get your safety officer involved. We stopped using B5 many years ago and now use only formalin.

We have 1 Pathologist who insists on using B-5 solution for nuclear detail
on small biopsies. How many labs are still using B 5 or what is you
suggestion other than Zinc Formalin for fixation. Thanks.
