[Histonet] Gloves ... a question

[Angela Bitting]

Thank you to everyone who replied to my question about wearing gloves
during embedding and cutting blocks.
I intentionally did not mention which side of the war I was on because I
wanted evryone to respond without feeling threatened (Histonet is such a
dangerous place)LOL
Thank you again.
By the way,   
I'm on the side of those who DO NOT wear gloves.....

In all the labs I have ever worked in ( and that's quite a few), nobody 
has ever worn gloves for embedding/cutting. I don't see what the benefit

would be.
