I am responsible for making sure that the Pathologists receive their cases in a timely manner. I distribute these different types of cases based on the doctors subspecialties. For example, there are doctors that only read Dermatology Cases, Hematology Cases, and Surgical Cases, so I distribute the cases based off of this information. I am also responsible for accessioning the different types of specimens we receive in the lab, processing them in formalin so the embedders can embed them in paraffin wax, and the Histotechs can cut the tissue. I also get to watch the Grossing Techs and Pathologist Assistants gross the specimens as they examine it for any type of disease, issues, or cancer.
I perform a lot of different chemical testing in the lab to ensure that the products that are produced (Aluminum, Grease, Oils) are okay to continue in production. I perform titrations, analyze substances using Gas Chromatography's and FTIR machines, I make grease to perform penetration tests on them, and I also perform solids tests, along with other minor testing, such as pH, viscosity, etc.
