Also remember that not one particular lab coat is the best for all
laboratories, etc. In most of our research labs, we went with cotton
lab coats with snap closures since we felt pyrophores were our greatest
risk for significant harm. So in that situation, a 65% polyester coat
would not be a good choice. As with most things, one needs to do a risk
assessment and try to find the solution that best balances those risks.
