Lab safety
In some laboratories, conditions are no more dangerous than in any other room. In many labs, though, hazards are present. In laboratories where dangerous conditions might exist, safety precautions are important. Rules exist to minimize the individual's risk, and safety equipment is used to protect the lab user from injury or to assist in responding to an emergency.
