How do do decontaminate ethidium bromide bound in gels ?
I use do document my PCR results by staining the agarose gels in an
Etbr-bath.I decontaminate the staining solution by filtering it through
carcoal and dispose the carcoal in a hazardous waste - bag which then goes
thermal incineration (<262 °C). 
But how do do treat your gels, gloves and cleaning tissues which may
contain traces of Etbr ?
Any suggestions appreciated - thanks
