[Histonet] un-nucleated squamous epithelial cells

If lotion gets in the waterbath, the tissue will not stick to the slides.

Shed skin cells can fall from any exposed skin, not just the hands. Like from 
the face of those that do not wear make-up or lotion.

Any extra-dried skin can shed cells. The best option is having your HTs using 
some skin lotion (like Keri lotion) to prevent shedding of cells.

Hello,
Has anyone studied where un-nucleated squamous epithelial cells originate 
from?   I'm leaning towards "thumbing blocks" with an ungloved hand but don't 
know for sure.  Other possibilities I've come up with are dandruff from the head 
or uncovered arms.  I hate to see our histologist work in a complete tyvek 
outfit so I'm searching for clues.
Thanks to all.
Roger
