Lab Safety in the Ausubel Lab

Adhering to safety protocols is crucial in the Ausubel Lab. Always wear a lab coat when handling hazardous chemicals and a radiation badge when working with radioactive materials. Prohibit open-toed shoes and ensure no flammables are stored on the top shelf or within 18 inches of sprinklers. Proper disposal of waste (solid, liquid, and volatile) is mandated. Familiarize yourself with radiation waste management, shielding, and the use of Geiger counters. Contact Andrew Diener for queries on radionuclide management. Follow common sense and safety for a safe laboratory environment.
