Common-Named Reagents
Several reagents which are regularly used in our University’s research laboratories are normally supplied from the manufacturers using the chemical’s “common” name, rather than the standard chemical nomenclature. Lab workers should always review the MSDS supplied with a new reagent to help identify whether any constituents in the mixture require management as a hazardous waste.
The following is a partial list of common-named reagents which should always be managed as a Hazardous Waste because of their chemical constituents or because they exhibit hazardous characteristics.
