School Of Medicine Biomedical Sciences COSHH Risk Assessment Form Before any experimental procedure involving the use of chemicals or reagents is undertaken, potential hazards must be identified and an assessment made of the risks posed by these hazards in the work activity in which they are involved. This risk assessment is a legal requirement to comply with the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (CoSHH) Act and is the responsibility of the research workers supervising the research projects. Before undertaking experimental procedures, all members of staff must read and sign the relevant CoSHH assessments
Measuring binding spectra of 2D6 substrates. Please note: Known carcinogens, teratogens and mutagens should only be used in consultation with senior staff and the Departmental Safety Officer. All user must have read University supplementary Code of Practice for the use of such substances and comply with its recommendations. It is important to realise that the use of certain carcinogens is banned by law.Chemical/Reagent Hazard Stock Volume/ Emergency Risk Precautions Disposal Quantity Action level
