  • Preparing Sodium Hydroxide Solutions Nov 2016
    STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE: Preparing sodium hydroxide solutions Note: To be undertaken only by trained personnel in conjunction with a current Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and site-specific risk assessment. ___________________ 1. Introduction Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a hazardous chemical and must be treated with care. It is highly corrosive to skin and eyes and extremely toxic if ingested. The solid can be purchased as pellets, flakes or mini pearls. It is very hygroscopic (absorbs water from the air) and will also absorb carbon dioxide from the air and therefore cannot be used as a primary standard for titrations. To minimise its absorption of water and carbon dioxide, it should be kept in a tightly closed container and left open for as little time as possible. Dissolving sodium hydroxide in water is an exothermic (heat producing) reaction. Synonyms: caustic soda, lye, soda lye. 2. Context These instructions are for the use of experienced teachers and technicians only. Do not make up a solution for the first time without seeking practical advice from an experienced colleague. 3. Safety Notes This activity may only be carried out with appropriate facilities available i.e. running water, chemical safety/eyewash station and relevant Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Conduct procedure in a well-ventilated area or fume cupboard. Avoid contact with skin and eyes, and avoid breathing fumes. The preparation of sodium hydroxide solutions liberates heat and may produce caustic fumes/vapours. Ensure that glassware is free from chips and cracks before use. For first aid, accident and spill procedures refer to SDS before making a solution.

Total heterotrophic bacterial counts on nutrient agar and R2A agar (Difco Laboratories, Detroit, Mich.) ranged from 0 to 105 CFU/ml, with Pseudomonas spp. being the most frequently isolated. Total counts of 104 and 108 cells per ml were obtained with the acridine orange staining procedure. All samples were examined for Legionella spp. by direct fluorescent-antibody staining and by culturing on buffered charcoal-yeast extract agar containing a-ketoglu- tarate and glycine and supplemented with cycloheximide, vancomycin, and polymyxin B. DNA-DNA hybridization was used to confirm identification of the Legionella isolates. Legionellae were detected in 35 of 40 (87.5%) samples by direct fluorescent-antibody staining, with 3 samples yielding both Legionella spp. and amoebae. Amoebae identified as Hartmannella, Vahlkampfia, Acanthamoeba, and Cochliopodium spp. were detected in 19 of 40 (47.5%) samples. Sabouraud dextrose agar was used to obtain a crude estimate of viable fungal populations. pH, hardness, and ammonia, alkalinity, chlorine, copper, and iron contents were recorded for all water samples collected from eyewash stations; 33% of the samples had .10 mg of CO2 per liter.

  • BMBL) Quickly Became the Cornerstone of Biosafety Practice and Policy in the United States Upon First Publication in 1984
    Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories 5th Edition U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Public Health Service Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Institutes of Health HHS Publication No. (CDC) 21-1112 Revised December 2009 Foreword Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL) quickly became the cornerstone of biosafety practice and policy in the United States upon first publication in 1984. Historically, the information in this publication has been advisory is nature even though legislation and regulation, in some circumstances, have overtaken it and made compliance with the guidance provided mandatory. We wish to emphasize that the 5th edition of the BMBL remains an advisory document recommending best practices for the safe conduct of work in biomedical and clinical laboratories from a biosafety perspective, and is not intended as a regulatory document though we recognize that it will be used that way by some. This edition of the BMBL includes additional sections, expanded sections on the principles and practices of biosafety and risk assessment; and revised agent summary statements and appendices. We worked to harmonize the recommendations included in this edition with guidance issued and regulations promulgated by other federal agencies. Wherever possible, we clarified both the language and intent of the information provided. The events of September 11, 2001, and the anthrax attacks in October of that year re-shaped and changed, forever, the way we manage and conduct work

  • Osmium Tetroxide
    Date: 08/08/2011 Effective: 08/08/2012 SOP Number: 0081 Review Date: 08/08/2013 Developed By: University Department of Environmental Health and Safety Standard Operating Procedures For Handling, Storage and Disposal of Osmium Tetroxide Purpose The purpose of this document is to establish specific standard operating procedures for handling, storage, and disposal of Osmium Tetroxide. The requirements established in this SOP are in conjunction with the University’s Chemical Hygiene Plan. Overview Osmium Tetroxide, an intermediate of osmium ore refining, is an inorganic compound that is highly toxic, even at low exposure levels and must be properly handled at all times. Low concentrations, even below those that may be smelled (about 2ppm), can lead to pulmonary edema and subsequent death when inhaled. Other symptoms of inhalation include coughing, headaches, irritation of the respiratory tract, wheezing, shortness of breath, and visual disturbances. Additional care must be used as this compound readily sublimates. It may take hours after exposure for any noticeable symptoms to appear. Osmium tetroxide is also a strong oxidant and corrosive, capable of burning and blistering human tissues. Osmium tetroxide may also stain the cornea, leading to potential blindness. Despite the relative scarcity of osmium, osmium tetroxide has a number of uses, including: Biological staining, Organic synthesis, Polymer staining, and as an adduct of buckminsterfullerene. Despite its expense, osmium tetroxide has the potential to be used as a chemical weapon and is believed to have been used in at least one failed plot. Standard Operating Procedures Handling 1. The Material Safety Data Sheet and this SOP must be reviewed before use of osmium tetroxide in the laboratory.

  • Safety in the Chemistry Laboratory
    Reference: Safety in Academic Chemistry Laboratories-Accident Prevention for College and University Students. A Publication of American Chemical Society Joint Board-Council Committee on Chemical Safety. 7th Edition-Vol 1 Safety in the Chemistry Laboratory General • All students must pass the Safety Quiz and sign a Safety Agreement before working in the lab. • State and Federal law require the use of splash proof safety goggles by anyone working in a chemical lab. No student will be allowed to work in the lab or weighing room without wearing the department approved splash-proof safety goggles with side shield, lab apron/coat, and closed toe shoes. There will be no exception to this rule. • You will be doing lab experiments that require hazardous chemicals. To ensure a safe chemistry lab you need to follow : o all safety rules given , o the safety DVD, and o all written and verbal instructions given for each experiment. • All safety rules will be strictly enforced. Ignoring or failing to follow any safety rule or instruction will result in your being dismissed from the lab. Safety Equipment Know the locations/operations and use of the following emergency equipments: 1. Fire extinguisher is stored in a compartment attached to the wall. 2. Red fire alarm is on the wall at eyelevel next to the fire extinguisher 3. Fire blanket is stored inside a labeled red box attached to the wall next to the fire extinguisher. The blanket is to be used on clothing that caught fire. The blanket can also be used to cover a shock victim. 4.
