Biohazards
Warns against infectious biochemical substances (e.g. liquids
which contain bacteria or viruses) present in the working area.
Some procedures must be executed on objects or in rooms which
contain bacteria, yeasts or other parasites. These substances may
become perilous not only to medical and laboratory personnel, but
also to cleaners when handled incorrectly.
Non-authorised persons must not have access to work areas in
which bio hazardous or infectious materials are handled.
Immediately call a doctor if suspicion of infection arises.
Corrosive substances
Risk of chemical burns!
A chemical burn to the eyes may lead to irreparable eye injuries.
Chemical burns to skin and human tissues may lead to severe inju-
ries.
All activities involving corrosive substances must only be carried
out while dressed in corrosive proof protective clothes and with
corrosion proof tools or peripheral items (e.g. bottles, flasks, con-
tainers). Unauthorised persons, without corrosion proof protective
clothes must not enter the working area
Hot surfaces
Hot surfaces such as heated parts of any equipment, flasks or ma-
terial and hot liquids are not always clear to see. Do not touch with-
out protective gloves
