What Are the Safety Protocols in Nanotechnology Laboratories?
To ensure safety in laboratories working with nanomaterials, the following protocols are recommended:
- Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Using gloves, masks, and protective clothing to prevent exposure. - Ventilation and Containment: Proper ventilation systems and containment strategies like fume hoods to limit airborne nanoparticles. - Waste Management: Implementing stringent waste disposal methods to prevent environmental contamination.
