Safety in the laboratory

Why do we wear safety glasses or a laboratory coat?

So that the chemicals don’t directly hit our body if there are any spillages

Why do we only use newly opened swabs?

Because people could have a sickness so we shouldn’t re-use them

What should we do after we use a swab or a slide immediately after use?

You must put it in a disinfectant beaker

Why do we have to be extra careful when using methylene blue?

Since it can stain so you must take care with it

Why do we not drink or eat in the lab?

It could lead to accidental indigestion of chemicals or other contaminants, leading to severe illness
