FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY
Some products contain sodium azide. Observe the following precautions when using products that contain
sodium azide:
•
Do not autoclave product containing sodium azide.
•
Flush drains thoroughly with water after disposing of solutions containing sodium azide to prevent
metal azides from forming on lead or copper pipes in laboratory plumbing. These azides can explode
upon percussion, such as hammering.
To remove contamination from old drains suspected of azide accumulation, the U.S. National Institute of
Occupational Safety and Health recommends the following procedure:
1.
Siphon liquid from the trap using rubber or plastic hose.
2.
Fill the trap with 10% sodium hydroxide solution.
3.
Allow the solution to stand in the trap for 16 hours.
4.
Flush the trap thoroughly with water.
