Laboratory safety, especially when handling potent, toxic or hazardous substances, such as active pharmaceutical ingredients, is of increasing importance to health and safety departments in many industries, including chemical, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and contract research and manufacturing organizations.
During the handling of potent or hazardous substance in the laboratory, companies have a legal requirement to minimize the exposure risk of their personnel by providing effective containment facilities and personal protective equipment (PPE). Automated weighing delivers an efficient combination of containment strategy and improved sample handling techniques to support these requirements.
In this webinar, we will discuss the importance of laboratory safety and how you can improve safety in a lab and what the challenges are.
