[Histonet] Gloves ... a question

Hah!  That was my spell-check "correcting" something that wasn't
incorrect.  I typed "cornified" and I guess my auto-check changed it to
"cornfield".  I will make sure it doesn't happen with this email...I
hope!

Cornfield cells can come from a variety of places, including the initial
slide labeling.  Also, they sometimes fall from your hair onto a slide.
Even simply picking up a previously cut slide can sometimes leave
cornfield cells.

I have never worn gloves and I have never had a pathologist complain of
skin cells on my slide either. Robyn OHSU

I once had a pathologist complain dead skin cells on  his slides when he
saw 
that I did not wear gloves when I was cutting.  Anyone else ever hear
this 
from a pathologist?
