Acrylamide, caution

CAUTION Acrylamide is extremely TOXIC and precautions must be taken to avoid skin contact or inhalation. Use gloves and handle in a well ventilated fume cupboard... 

Caution Acrylamide is very toxic. Avoid inhalation of dust and wear gloves during manipulation with monomers ... 

A word of caution the procedure must be followed carefully, for we are trying to copolymerize, possibly with the same efficiency, as many as nine different chemicals at one time (in extended pH gradients, seven Immobilines + acrylamide and Bis). Deviations do not work. For example, when we tried to make highly cross-linked (i.e., highly porous) gels by... 

Viscometric data for dilute and semidilute poly(acrylamide) solutions can often be fit to a Carreau model (63,64). It is wise to remember the cautions that were cited previously about mechanical degradation of the high molecular weight components of a polyacrylamide sample when analyzing rheological data. 

Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). Caution Acrylamide, bis-acrylamide and formamide are quite toxic. Keep all PAGE reagents refrigerated. 

CAUTION Since acrylamide is supplied as a white crystalline material (m.p. 84°-85°C) its appearance is similar to many well-crystallized, pure, and innocuous organic products. 

CAUTION acrylamide/bisacrylamide, ammoniiun persulfate, ampidllin, Bradford dye, DTT, IPTG, liquid nitrogen, Na HPO, NaH PO, SDS, sodium azide, TEMED (see Appendix 4)... 

CAUTION acrylamide, actinomydn D, bromophenol blue, CHClj, DTT, formamide, isoamyl alcohol, KCl, MgCl, MnCl, NaOH, PEG, phenol, polyvinyl alcohol, radioactive substances, urea, xylene cyanol (see Appendix 4)...
