This differs from a scientific approach to a QMS to a non-scientific
approach; a medical approach?

This differs in being an accredited lab vs a non-accredited lab.

This differs from being a waste of time and effort in what way?

We went thru this same ordeal a few years ago during our AAVLD
inspection.  
I also had the same comments regarding the closed conditions of
automated IHC and how room temp and humidity would have little or any
affect on IHC.  The inspector explained the requirement is justified
when troubleshooting any testing that has somehow been transformed over
time based on your control changes. The data would be used to rule out
the room conditions more then to blame the room conditions as the cause.
Our whole laboratory is now wired to monitor these conditions.

The comment for the records were regarding IHC and yet I find changes in
humidity and temperature have more effect on my sectioning and mounting
of
paraffin and plastic sections.  If you are doing automated IHC I don't
see how
this would matter.  If it is manual and you use a humidity chamber it
still
won't matter much.  I could only see this mattering to IHC if it is done
on the
bench in open air.  The changes I get seasons change throughout the day
as heat
or AC are added or changed.

Is this really a new requirement??
