hazard indications and information reported in the applicable Material Safety Data Sheet.
Use Personal protection according to the safety requirements.
When analyzing toxic compounds be aware that during the normal operation of the GC some
of the sample may be vented outside the instrument through the inlet and detector exits;
therefore the exhaust gases must be vented to a fume hood. Consult local Environmental and
Safety Regulations for instructions in exhausting fumes from your system.
