[Histonet] RE: paraffin

[Walter Benton]

You may want to purchase the large tack mats for staff to walk over when going in and out of your embedding area. These come in blue, white, or gray:

Subject: [Histonet] paraffin

Hi all,
I am dealing with an issue with slippery floors outside of our Histology department.  The concern is that it is from paraffin scraps tracked on the bottoms of peoples shoes.  The floor is cleaned every night and an anti-slip agent applied.  I have tested whether our paraffin makes the floors more slippery and it actually makes it harder to slip....almost tacky.  I really do not think it is our paraffin.  I think it is a thin layer of dust that settles on the floors after they are cleaned.  I have seen this happen in other places.  Is anyone dealing with this?  Any insight?
Thanks,
Lacie
