Does anybody remember how to test whether a formaldehyde filter for a grossing station is exhausted?  If I remember right there is some sort of test where you remove a couple of granules and cut the granules in half.  The color of the cut service is used somehow.

Also I know that changing formaldehyde filters on ductless workstations needs to be done regularly.  Can anyone share how often they change the formaldehyde filters for a gross lab senior or a small station such as a HYperclean?
