[Histonet] histology lab temperature and humidity

[Cassie P. Davis]

At one of my jobs we were discussing the way excess humidity can cause tissue to fall off slides even when they are charged or treated and may need to be in the slide dryer longer. Isn't there a CAP requirement requiring monitoring of the humidity as well as temperature in the actual lab not just where slides are stored?
