Re: Another GHS question...

We use Risk Assess here, so I thought I would look at the proposed labels that they will be providing once the system is up and running. The examples are located at the bottom of the home page. I am not sure the first 2 even meet the Regulation. My HOF has stated that we need to also add manufacture...

Re: Find a GHS labeled product challenge

Re: GHS Labeling

You decide what info you want on your label and chemwatch imports it off the SDS for you.
you dont have to type the info yourself.
I hope you understand.

Re: Chemffx credo labelling help!

try typing in the same chemical name as before and see if the same hazard info comes up. then try the chemical that you are currently working on. It may be that your current chemical is non hazardous.

Re: rat dissection

I was hoping the dissection of rats was obsolete now. If their is anything that I equally hate with cleaning up eyeball dissections is rat/toad.

Re: rat dissection

We were told that it is unsafe to buy the dead rats from a petshop as they are not laboratory grade and free from diseases and can potentially pass it on to the kids during dissection.

Did you go bigmack? That was my understanding - to cover up old labels.
