I was telling my boss about the mayo and she wanted to know where the reference came from. Does anyone know a nursing/medical journal or book where this can be found? We use SurCleanse to try and clean as much and then silvadene or polymyco to loosen it-does the mayo work better? Just curious always looking into different alternatives.

We're using "Liquid paraffin" for removing tar, try it and you will get amazing result without further damage to the skin.

We use mineral oil here. I'm surprised there are units that use mayo for burn care. Talk about a huge medium for bacteria growth, aren't our patients compromised enough?
