[Histonet] Re: Protecting fingers during microtomy

[Laurie Popp]

Me...while in training on a clean blade because the supervisor walked up 
behind me and startled me while I was putting a clean one on after 
cutting a chunk of bone... little cut and only an incident report.  I 
was told when I entered that lab that you aren't a real histotech until 
you have cut yourself at least once?  The students coming out of our 
histo school use surgipath's cut resistant gloves but they are only cut 
resistant... not completely cut proof because when EHS tried to force us 
all to use them one of my colleagues cut herself pretty good while using 
them
