  3. EXPECTATIONS • SAFETY! • arrive prepared for lab • work in TEAMS of 4-5 to complete lab • write INDIVIDUAL lab report • provide constructive feedback 01/18/2012

  4. OVERVIEW • Safety • Lab Outline • Expectations • Reports 01/24/2012

  5. SAFETY • Environmental Health & Safety Training for Biological/Chemical Research Labs • labs are dangerous; so be safe • if you have questions…ASK • DON’T BE STUPID 01/18/2012

  6. CHEMICAL HAZARDS • Flammable / Combustible / Toxic • Respect all chemicals in lab • If you can smell it…it is bad for you! • Use a hood if specified • LABEL EVERYTHING! 01/18/2012

  7. BIOHAZARDS • Biosafety Level 1 – least hazardous • Cell Culture • Media Preparation • LABELS! (krishgen.com) 01/18/2012
