Chemical Safety
The typical research laboratory deals with relatively small quantities of
chemical as compared to industrial uses. Chemical safety includes
transportation, use and disposal. Important aspects of chemical safety include
proper storage, labeling, and Material Safety Data Sheets. Disposal of hazardous
chemicals is coordinated campus wide by the Department of Environmental Health
and Safety. For information on chemical safety please call
