[Histonet] Paraffin Accumulation on floor

[Scott, Allison D]

How is everyone dealing with the accumulation and tracking of paraffin
problems.  We have mats on the floor where we cut and embed.  We also
have the mats that you walk on and it takes the paraffin off of the
bottom of your shoes and you peel off a layer a day.  Our medical
director wants us to find a way to keep the floors clear, so that no one
will slip and fall.  I have never seen a histololgy lab that did not
have a paraffin tracking problem.
