MOST IMPORTANT LABORATORY PROTOCOLS

1. Know your laboratory equipment and their correct use before manipulating them.
Handle all laboratory equipment carefully.

2. Dress appropriately. You must wear a lab coat and safety goggles. Safety gloves should
be worn whenever you use chemicals that cause irritations or can be absorbed through
the skin.

3. Do not perform activities without your instructor’s permission. Never work alone in the
laboratory. Work only when your instructor is present.

4. Strictly follow the instructions given by your instructor or a book.

5. Handle chemicals carefully. Check the labels of all bottles before removing the
contents. Read the labels three times: before you pick up the container, when the
container is in your hand, and when you put the bottle back.

6. Do not eat, drink, smoke, sleep or play in the laboratory.

7. Know what to do with lab accidents. Know the location of the fire extinguisher, safety
shower, eyewash, fire blanket, and first-aid kit. Know how to use the safety equipment
provided for you.

8. Report any accident, injury, incorrect procedure, or damaged equipment immediately

to your instructor.

9. Dispose of lab waste properly.

10. After completing an activity, clean and put away your equipment. Clean your work
area. Make sure the gas and water are turned off. Wash your hands with soap and water
before you leave the laboratory.
