1. BI102 Lab Intro

2. BIOLOGY LAB SAFETY REGULATIONS & STUDENT RESPONSIBILITIES
Read these carefully. You are responsible for them! 1. Science labs are inherently dangerous due to chemicals present. Eating and drinking are prohibited in the labs. 2. In case of injury, get the instructor, send someone for the instructor, or call for help immediately. 3. Know where the fire extinguisher is. In case of fire in the lab, use common sense and play it safe. If it’s your clothes on fire, yell "FIRE" and roll on the floor or use a coat to smother flames. Chemical fires are dangerous. Water will often only make the situation worse. If you see abundant flames or smell smoke from and unknown source, you should call out "FIRE" and calmly, but quickly, evacuate the building, insisting others leave as well.

4. If you spill chemicals on yourself or your clothes, rinse the area immediately with running water. If you splash chemicals in your eyes, go immediately to the eye wash station, turn on cold water, remove the red caps and lean down so that the water bubbles into your eyes. Keep rinsing while holding your eyes open and send someone else to get the instructor! 5. Protect your eyes. Handle all chemical, including stains, below eye level. Wear protective goggles or glasses whenever you work with chemicals or microbes. 6. Wash your hands with soap and water whenever leaving the lab for a break or at the end of class. 7. Wash your work area and spray it down with the disinfectant provided before each lab begins.

8. Closed-toed shoes must be won at all times in the lab. Long pants are preferred, even in warm weather, to protect legs. Old clothes without baggy sleeves are recommended. 9. Keep the lab counter uncluttered. Stow extra books and coats on the back counter if available. 10. If you have long hair, tie it back to keep it out of your eyes and the chemicals. 11. Clean-up is your responsibility. Wash down your work area to remove spilled chemicals at the end of lab. Wash all glassware and dry it, including slides and cover slips. Sweep up broken glass and deposit it in the special cardboard container provided (not in the trash cans). Clean out the sink if you have used it. 12. Know what you are working with at all times and be prepared should something go wrong. Read the lab in advance and precisely follow all directions!!!
