[Histonet] Static electricity problems

[Krat18 <@t> aol.com]

Our lab has sectioning problems in the winter because of static electricity  
and low humidity.   Can anyone tell me what is the ideal humidity for  good 
quality sectioning in histology, and if the humidity  is too low in the lab 
(ours runs between 32% and 38% in  the winter), what is the best way to raise it 
without creating a draft or other  sectioning difficulties?   
 
Thanks for your advice.
