This day is dedicated to self-studies. Read and reflect on the material and complete the tests, see links below.

In order to fully benefit from this course you need to complete these web tutorials, tests and assignment before Wednesday morning.

Web-tutorials:

Watch the movie and read the material. Note! This text is a preparation for the group seminar on Ventilated workspaces, Wednesday morning

Read this text: Gloves. Note! This text is a preparation for the group seminar on Gloves, Wednesday morning
Watch this movie to learn more about penetration, permeation and degradation of glove materials (n.b. there is no sound):

Shield Scientific is for the time being KI's only procured manufacturer of laboratory gloves and has a useful website for checking whether you are using appropriate gloves for the chemicals included in your experiments. It's called the Chemical Resistance Guide. As an exercise, check the chemical resistance for 70% ethanol, formaldehyde and Xylene. Which gloves have the best resistance for the different chemicals? Are there good options for all of the chemicals?

When finished with the web tutorials, tick the boxes for these exercises under "Objectives and Progress "("Mål och framsteg") above to the left.
