Articles

In the new Lab Safety Review column, Laboratory Network.com readers will find a monthly series of articles contributed by experts in the field of lab safety. Articles will explain how to select safe products for your applications, describe safer ways to utilize equipment, outline new innovations in lab safety, and suggest classic techniques for ensuring a safe environment.

The Lab Safety Review Column will be featured on both Laboratory Network.com and Safety Online.com. Each month, a different lab safety expert will contribute an article about product safety, ventilation, ergonomics, regulatory issues, and more. Contact information for each author will be included at the bottom of each Lab Safety Review column so that you can ask the experts additional questions.

In addition to these monthly features, the Lab Safety Review will also include a regular update of general lab safety tips that are provided by the Laboratory Safety Workshop (LSW; Natick, MA). The LSW is a non-profit organization dedicated to making health and safety an integral part of science education.

As safety is critical in every lab environment, the editors of Laboratory Network.com welcome your lab safety tips and article suggestions. Please send these to Managing Editor Laura Vandendorpe at lvandendorpe@vertical.net or call 773-880-0242.
