Hysterical. One for my files!! Thanks.
This is the SDS. We just didn't take the M off. An MSDS is the same as a SDS. Sorry if that confused you.
What I sent you was the Material Safety Data Sheet. Which is in essence a Safety Data Sheet

I should clarify that the inventory is mainly used by researchers and we do used the newest manufacturer=E2=80™s SDS for all new chemicals coming into the system. For older bottles however is where I run into these problems and I upload the best
SDS I've determined for that particular chemicals because I get "edited" SDS back from the company that bought the older company. I also make notes on each chemical entry informing the researcher where I got all the hazards. (The inventory system allows us
to enter all the GHS hazard so all the classifications are written out and researchers see them right away).
Here's an example of a respond I've gotten when I told then I needed an SDS not a MSDS.

So you can see the situations where I need to "pick and choose" the best SDS for chemicals and not go off the manufacturers. Sometimes the chemical is so old that they don't have GHS classifications.

I'm not answering for Jeff, but I sent people to Sigma, not to put their SDSs in the book instead of the manufacturer's SDS, but to put the Sigma SDS there for the
correct data along side the junk from the US manufacturer. I kind of second opinion SDS.
