Chemical-Specific Safety Guidelines
Safety information has been developed for specific chemicals and chemical hazard groups, addressing essential aspects such as associated hazards, recommended personal protective equipment (PPE), storage and labeling requirements, engineering controls, first aid measures, and proper disposals practices. The Resources section includes Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for commonly used chemicals and groups found in laboratories and work areas located on the TCU campus.
This information will be regularly updated as new SOPs are created by the Environmental
Health and Safety (EHS) department or members of the TCU community. We encourage sharing
your SOPs with others by sending a copy to safety@tcu.edu.
