Its been 4 years since this video was made... Wondering if theres been any changes due chemical fumes during the tissue processing (that blue mask doesnt protect you for chemicals like xylene and alcohol fumes. You still risk your health for lung damaging and cancer). Second stage, cutting slides with a water bath full with contaminations... Is this lab really for diagnositc or students? Last.. those chemicals at the window. Is that picric acid? That yellow fluid is explosive... Please contact for safety and health protocols... 🙏🏻
Does histochoice need the same special mask as Xylene? Are alcohol/ethanol fumes dangerous to inhale when changing the baths? I'm a student and I would like to know if you could share your references. Thank you very much!
Cloth masks offer ZERO protection. Even with activated carbon filter masks the lab work area needs to have fume hoods savaging the lab air. Not sure which state this lab is in but in CA they would have to meet strict air quality and exposure guidelines.
