Lab Coats is the topic for the May Safety Focus. You will be required to wear a lab coat, gloves and safety glasses when you are working in the lab.
Please see the PDF below outlining the various types of lab coat materials, safety videos, and purchasing options. By June 1st every student working in the lab should be wearing a lab coat.
Why?
