[Histonet] Handline paraffin

[Johnson, Carole]

This is kind of an odd question, but I was asked by a pathologist for any SOPs or references for the necessity of wearing gloves when embedding and working with paraffin. I am not aware of sources other than the MSDS for the different formulations. Does anyone require gloves to be worn during embedding, specifically related to paraffin hazards?

To understand is to stand under, which is to look up, which is a good way to understand
