Ralph,
The "smelly" on the scroll really needs to be changed to reflect known low
toxicity, fumehoods should be standard for moderate/high/unknown toxicity
possible chemical exposures, which should not be accomplished on an open
benchtop. Evaluating the toxicity of the materials, with what is known,
more importantly unknown, needs to be conducted in a negatively ventilated
space, e.g., fumehood.
I know this practice needs development in practice, but isn't that what
should be done?

Subject: [DCHAS-L] Draft lab risk assessment video comments requested

With the support of the ACS's Innovative Project Grant program for technical
divisions, DCHAS has been working with Timothy Gallagher of the University
of Bristol and a video artist to develop a short video on the the topic of
laboratory risk assessments and maintaining situational awareness as work
proceeds. We are nearing the end of the editing process; the current draft
is available for viewing at
https://vimeo.com/260598497
with a password of: lab

I'd appreciate any comments or questions DCHAS members have about the video
by Thursday of this week.

Let me know if you have any questions about this.

- Ralph
