Disposable Cutting Boards Increase Pathologists' Productivity and Accuracy

By LabMedica International staff writers
Posted on 28 Jan 2009
Disposable laboratory cutting boards are cheap and readily available. They are suitable for pathology labs, saving hours of work and reducing contamination risks.

Called LABboards, the design was based on a disposable cutting board for kitchens that is a success from a food-safety standpoint. For pathology and other laboratories, LABboards include printed metric measurements and fold-up sides for fluid containment, helping ensure accuracy. The surface does not require cleaning because all boards are thrown away at the end of each procedure. Pathologists who use regular cutting boards spend 35-45 minutes per day sanitizing them between procedures.

LABboards (Naples, FL, USA) recently became a partner with Mednet Direct Corp. (Ridge, NY, USA), a company dealing in disposable medical supplies.

The aim of LABboards is to supply medical and laboratory professionals with a full range of disposable cutting surfaces. LABboards are the cutting surface standard for Best Practice protocols in laboratories, hospitals, and research facilities throughout the world.
