What does UVM recommend as a guide to safety in laboratories?
Prudent Practices in the Laboratory by the National Research Council at http://www.nap.edu/openbook/0309052297/html is used to guide chemical safety practices at UVM. Paper versions are available in the UVM libraries and on loan from the Environmental Safety Facility. Information about the safe laboratory use of specific chemicals can be found in the Laboratory Chemical Safety Summaries at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute site http://www.hhmi.org/about/labsafe/lcss.
