Attempt to extinguish the fire only if you are not in danger
yourself. Do so with a fire extinguisher.
 Early intervention with small fires can prevent
catastrophic big fires.

Shut down air conditioning in case of gaseous, or liquid
chemical contamination.
Notify authorities.
In case of splash on your garments, take them off
immediately. Wash affected area with running water for at
least 15 minutes.
Call 6666. Use acid neutralization kit.
If the area is safe, use eye wash or body wash showers.
Cleaning up is done with professional teams. But if you can
shut down the source of the contamination without putting
your self in danger, please do so.
Do you know how to use and oxygen cylinder or a flee mask?

kullanmadan laboratuvara girmeyiniz.
Do NOT eat, drink and smoke in the lab. You are discouraged
from wearing makeup in the lab.
Long hair must be tied in the back and taken into a hair net.
Drooping metal necklesses, arm bands or bracelets should
NOT be worn in the lab.
Short slacks are NOT allowed in the lab. Use a lab garments.
Do NOT use your mouth for pipette action .
After you leave the lab, wash your hands and check yourself
for possible chemicl splashes.
Do NOT use short cuts during the experiment. Use

Do NOT touch any equipment without the permission ofthe
user.
Food and drinks are stored in the refrigerator in the kitchen.
No chemicals in this refrigerator please.
NO food in the refrigerators in the lab.
If you use chemicals that takes too long to finish the job,
notify M. Gure the nature of the chemical process before
starting the experiments and get approval.
Read MSDS of cheimicals that you are using the first time.
Do NOT leave chemicals out in the open without marking
their identity and last use date.
Do NOT work alone in the lab during after hours. Notify the
security guard when wroking at night.
Working after midnight requires special written request by
your academic advisor from ARL Coordinator prior to any
work. Lab security is required to check that this is done.

Use minimum quantities of chemicals when working. Do
NOT store chemicals in your office or lab. Use chemical
storage area for excess chemical storage. See M. Gure for
this.
Please notify possible hazardous situations to lab personel.


-
-
Class 3b:

Protect your eyes, as appropriate.
Put the Lab entrance alert.
Put the optics low as much as possible.
Strong ambient lighting. So the narrow retina
diameter.
Keep airconditioners open.
Do not touch exposed cables, etc..

While working in a laboratory security
ALWAYS should be kept at the forefront.
Otherwise your life (even worse of a friend)
can cost lives.
