Good afternoon everyone,
We use a pink sticker to have labs denote PFCs which allows them to record their received, opened, and tested dates which gives them a visible reminder that the container requires regular testing.
Below is the link to the "Safety Guideline" published to include the list of chemicals, management plan, and instructions for how to test using the Quantofix(r) 100 test strips:
Cheers,
-P

Hi Jeff,
Thanks so much for the resources you sent.
I will check them out today.
Best, Anja
Anja,
You might want to take a look at the extensive resources available at the University of MInnesota:
Hi all,
I’m forwarding this on behalf of Anja Rosengarth, who just was re-added to the listserv. See below.

I acknowledge that the land on which I live and work is the ancestral and unceded land of the

Hello,
My name is Anja Rosengarth, I recently re-joined ACS and the DCHAS which I am very excited about.
I am the EH&S coordinator for the School of Physical Sciences at UC Irvine and we recently encountered some issues with peroxide forming chemicals and the testing of them using test strips.
I would like to get some advice on the issue, and I am interested in asking other DCHAS members what policies and SOPs are in place at their Universities/Departments.
Would you be able to put me into contact with some members or how should I go about this?
I would appreciate your help.
Have a great day,
Anja
