BIOL201 LAB SAFETY WORKSHEET 2024 WITH COMPLETE SOLUTION BIOL201 LAB SAFETY WORKSHEET 2024 WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONIntroduction
Who is best able to assess the potential dangers of your laboratory setting? Only I can assess all potential hazards in my lab setting
What is the primary danger for laboratory exercises done in a home setting?
The primary danger for Lab exercises is the home environment, especially if there are young children or pets. Pets have a strong sense, which may attract them to the kit. I have a dog, so I need to be extra careful. All lab equipment should be kept away from childrens and pets.
Laboratory Attire and PPE 1.When performing lab activities, what types of clothing should be avoided?(pg3)
-Avoid loose clothes( clothes should cover the midriff and upper leg)
-Avoid loose jewelry since it could interfere with the experiment. 2. If you have long hair, what should you do prior to starting the lab?
If you have long hair, like myself, it should be pulled back and secured in a ponytail or bun.
3.Considering that some lab activities will have you use a burner that has an open flame, why is the answer to question 1 & 2 important?
If you wear loose, baggy clothing, there is a higher chance it could catch fire during the experiment. Also long earrings are made out of metal, which can cause burns if they catch on fire. Also, long hair should be secured to ensure it does not catch on fire and protect hair from chemicals used in the lab. In conclusion, no baggy clothes, earrings, or loose hair.
What type of footwear do you need to use while performing experiments? Why do you think that this is important to
your safety?
-Wear shoes that cover your whole feet (barefoot and sandals are not allowed). This is important because it protects you from spilled objects and potentially broken glass.
4.What type of PPE was included in your kit?
According to Carolina Science, the kit included one Safety set. The lab manual also included safety eyewear, gloves, and a chemical apron. The manual also included videos to ensure you are using the safety equipment correctly. It is extremely important that lab goggles are worn since a video showed that egg whites have proteins similar to those in our eyes.
When acid is added, the protein is denatured, and it is irreversible.
