HEALTH AND SAFETY IN CLINICAL LABORITORIES Health and safety at work act (1974) show that it is a duty of every employer to ensure as far as reasonably practice to health safety and welfare at work of all of its employees. Risks assessments must be carried out when more than 5 people are employed and implement changes as necessary. Risk assessment is a carefully recorded examination of what might cause harm and accidents to people in work places e.g. staff‚ visitors‚ patients‚ clients and contractors

Safety in a microbiology laboratory is important in the prevention of infection that might be caused by the microorganisms being studied. This laboratory does not require the use of virulent human pathogens. However‚ many types of microorganisms are potentially pathogenic. This means that‚ although they would not cause disease in a normal healthy host‚ they might possibly do so if a large enough quantity of the microbes came into contact with a compromised host‚ such as by wounds and cuts.

Aliphatic hydrocarbons are divided into three classes: alkanes (e.g. methane‚ ethane and propane) have only single bonds‚ and are said to be saturated; alkenes (e.g. ethene and propene)

The woman who is speaking talks about her feelings of hatred and betrayal‚ so she decides to show her lover how much she is hurt by poisoning his mistress and making him watch her die slowly. Robert Browning’s poem was set in the ancient regime when women were thought of as incapable and a lower class because of their

In The Laboratory‚ the courtesan chooses poison as her murder weapon. Poison is often the weapon of choice for female killers. It requires little or no physical strength to administer‚ and can be done secretly. It also leaves little evidence thus making it difficult to detect the culprit. We believe the act of murder is because of another woman that her lover is with and she feels physically inferior to her rival. We know this because she starts saying ‘What a drop! She’s not little‚ no minion like

values that have trailing zeros only to the left of the decimal point are ambiguous and should be expressed in scientific notation. We must take note that the chemistry textbook (Silberberg 6e) states that placing a decimal point to the right of some trailing zeros (example: 300.) will make the zeros significant. However in General Chemistry‚ we do not follow this rule. If we want to write a whole number with trailing zeros we must use scientific notation to show which zeros are significant. When
