CAUTION

Avoid exposure to potentially harmful materials

By law, producers and suppliers of chemical compounds are required to provide their customers with the most current health and safety information in the form of Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) or Safety Data Sheets (SDSs). The MSDSs and SDSs must be freely available to lab personnel to examine at any time. These data sheets describe the chemicals and summarize information on the hazard and toxicity of specific chemical compounds. They also provide information on the proper handling of reagents, first aid for accidental exposure, and procedures to remedy spills or leaks.

CAUTION

Risk of eye injury

Read the MSDS or SDS for each chemical you use. Store and handle all chemicals in accordance with standard safety procedures. Always wear protective gloves and safety glasses when you use solvents or corrosives. Also, contain waste streams, use proper ventilation, and dispose of all laboratory reagents according to the directions in the MSDS or SDS.
