Hi Jeff,
Yes, that’s the one! I should have thought to check our own fact sheet first, haha!

Jack,
Are you referring to "Chronic Lung Impact on Laboratory Worker Exposed to Chloramines and Cyanogen Chloride?"
Hello all,
I was hoping the collective could help me track down an article. Sometime in the last 5 years or so, I recall reading a fairly in-depth article about
a graduate student who suffered lingering effects due to exposure to the gases formed from mixing bleach and a Qiagen kit (particularly the guanidinium thiocyanate). A big part of the article was about the university involved initially saying they would pay
for the student’s medical care, then pulling back from that promise. Does anyone else recall this, and if so, could you please share the article? I can’t find it. Thanks!
