Laboratory carts designed to transport and/or store tissue specimens for pathologic analysis. These carts typically consist of a set of wire shelves appropriate to accommodate containers with a preservative liquid (e.g., formaldehyde) in which the pathological samples (usually organ tissue) are immersed. The cart trays usually provide spill-proof containment of the preservative liquid and include some means (e.g., pads) to absorb and/or neutralize the spills. Some pathology laboratory carts can be handled inside ventilated cabinets including doors that provide a safe and easy storage of the tissue specimens.
