[Histonet] Fume hood inqury

[Ze Lu]

Dear all,

We are thinking to move to a new lab space but there is no fume hood built in there. Is fume hood required when doing general histological work including tissue process, embedding and staining? By the way, we also have a HPLC system. Anybody know the requirment for HPLC running (not sample preparation which must be done under hood, just HPLC machine). I checked the OSHA web site but can not find useful info.  Any helps? Thanks.
