Prudent Practices in the Laboratory: Handling and Management of Chemical Hazards, Updated Version by The Committee on Prudent Practices in the Laboratory has served for decades as the standard for chemical laboratory safety practice--now features updates and new topics. This revised edition has an expanded chapter on chemical management and delves into new areas, such as nanotechnology, laboratory security, and emergency planning.
Developed by experts from academia and industry, with specialties in such areas as chemical sciences, pollution prevention, and laboratory safety, Prudent Practices in the Laboratory provides guidance on planning procedures for the handling, storage, and disposal of chemicals. The book offers prudent practices designed to promote safety and includes practical information on assessing hazards, managing chemicals, disposing of wastes, and more.
This guide will continue to serve as the leading source of chemical safety guidelines for people working with laboratory chemicals: research chemists, technicians, safety officers, educators, and students.
I have had the previous edition for many years and it is the mainstay of safe practice used in my labs for many years. The new edition does not disappoint and now resides alongside it older sibling on my workplace bookshelf. I recommend this to any person working in a laboratory environment using hazardous materials.
