CHEMICAL HAZARD. Before handling any chemicals, refer to
the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) provided by the manufacturer, and observe all
relevant precautions.

appropriate eyewear, protective clothing, and gloves when working on the instrument.
CHEMICAL HAZARD. Four-liter reagent and waste bottles can
crack and leak. Each 4-liter bottle should be secured in a low-density polyethylene safety
container with the cover fastened and the handles locked in the upright position. Wear
appropriate eyewear, clothing, and gloves when handling reagent and waste bottles.
CHEMICAL STORAGE HAZARD . Never collect or store waste
in a glass container because of the risk of breaking or shattering. Reagent and waste

About MSDSs
Chemical manufacturers supply current Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) with
shipments of hazardous chemicals to new customers. They also provide MSDSs with
the first shipment of a hazardous chemical to a customer after an MSDS has been
updated. MSDSs provide the safety information you need to store, handle, transport,
and dispose of the chemicals safely.
Each time you receive a new MSDS packaged with a hazardous chemical, be sure to
replace the appropriate MSDS in your files.
