- 2. Other PPE to be worn for this process/procedure include the following:
(Check all that apply).
- Double gloves to address high potential for hand contamination
- Impact resistant safety glasses with side shields for bench work outside of a shielded environment (i.e., behind a biological safety cabinet or fume hood sash)
- Splash goggles because the procedure involves liquid quantities and processes that are likely to produce hazardous splashes or sprays outside of a shielded environment (i.e., behind a biological safety cabinet or fume hood sash)
- Face shield to reduce the possibility of skin or mucous membrane contamination that could facilitate lab-acquired infection occurrence
- Surgical mask or N-95 respirator for mouth/nose protection or airway protection respectively. Note: N-95 respirator use is subject to OSHA respiratory protection requirements
