[Histonet] specimen marking ink

[Davis, Cassie]

Hi Histo World, as I was cutting to day I was thinking why don't we see if we could get specimen marking ink directly from a tattoo vendor? When I first started in histo I was told the ink we use was actually tattoo ink. As we know as soon as somebody labels something as a "medical supply" the price is increased. Just a cost saving thought, I mentioned it to my immediate supervisor but she think it would be a liability issue. I thought we could "test/validate it on skin tissue left over from a mastectomy or extremity. Any thoughts?
