Safety Alert
Words
Four safety alert words appear in Applied Biosystems user
documentation. Each word implies a particular level of observation
or action, as described below:
IMPORTANT! Indicates information that is necessary for proper
instrument operation, accurate chemistry kit use, or safe use of a
chemical.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if
not avoided, can result in minor or moderate injury. It can also alert
against unsafe practices, damage to an instrument, or loss of data.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if
not avoided, can result in serious injury or death.
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that,
if not avoided, will result in serious injury or death. This signal word
is to be limited to the most extreme situations.
Chemical Hazard
Warning
CHEMICAL HAZARD. Some of the chemicals
used with Applied Biosystems instruments and protocols are
potentially hazardous and can cause injury, illness, or death.
Chemical Safety
Guidelines
To minimize the hazards of chemicals:
• Read and understand the MSDSs provided by the chemical
manufacturer before you store, handle, or work with any
chemicals or hazardous materials. See “About MSDSs.”
• Minimize contact with chemicals. When handling chemicals,
wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety
glasses, gloves, and protective clothing. For additional safety
guidelines, consult the MSDS.
• Minimize the inhalation of chemicals. Do not leave chemical
containers open. Use only with adequate ventilation (for
example, a fume hood). For additional safety guidelines, consult
the MSDS.
