Hello all,

Our hospital is moving our histology department across the hall and have
asked us if we can find an alternative to the bunsen burner so they don't
have to install a gas line.  The pathologist has told me that there is some
machine that can be used instead of a flame to burn the forceps while
embedding (which is our main use for the bunsen flame).  This is the only
lab I have ever worked at and I don't know what such a machine would be
called.  If anyone knows the name, or any other alternative method can you
let me know.  Model numbers/companies would be a bonus too!  Thanks so much
for your help.
