[Histonet] Block disposal

[Karen Percival]

Allen, Michael,

Better check with legal services.  I think you have to get permission
to give away those blocks even though they are ready for disposal.

Why don't you give them to the Cooperative Human Tissue Network (3400
Spruce

normal and diseased human tissue.

Subject: [Histonet] Block disposal

Help! Our off site storage facility is overflowing with old paraffin
blocks. We know the 10 year limit according to CAP.  Our dilemma is
how
to dispose of them. Correct me us if were wrong, but we have a bio
hazard company, and were thinking red back the blocks, and place in
the
provided bio hazard containers.  Any thoughts?
Thanks
