Chemical kits describe any container housing small quantities of different chemicals used for medical, analytical, or testing purposes. The individual chemicals may exhibit one or more hazards, although they must be compatible with the other contents. First aid kits are convenient packages or boxes of medical supplies to provide immediate and sometimes makeshift medical attention. They may include multiple different materials, some of which will be hazardous (e.g., drugs, alcohols, mercury in thermometers)  

Gas samples are taken by equipment that draws the gas stream into empty vials or through tubes containing some absorbent that concentrates the sample. Many systems analyse the sample in situ using colour indicators, gas chromatographs, or solid state analysers. Other gas samples are transported in sealed containers for analysis, but they are rarely under pressure. 

A gas identification set includes containers of small quantities of various gases of known concentration that are used as standards against which to calibrate analytical equipment. Permeation devices contain small containers of compressed or liquefied gases that, on opening, pass through a gas permeable membrane at a known rate and constant temperature. They are also used for calibration.

Using a standard audit form is certainly acceptable and can prove to be an outstanding tool, especially when getting a handle on a fire extinguisher program, life-safety issues, the lighting of exit signs, availability of first-aid kits, clear aisles, and a variety of issues that are basic in nature. The typical standard audit form will likely have complete sections that are marked not applicable. Unless a unique audit form is created, there is usually no way around sections that will be marked not applicable. ...

Most first-aid kits contain instant cold compresses to treat injuries and burns. A simple chemical reaction, initiated by the user, provides for the immediate application of a cooling remedy. 

Abstract Main features of the R D resulting in the new means for primary decontamination of chemical warfare agents based on the chemisorption principle introduced into the Czech Army s individual decontamination mean IPB-80 and into the Czech Civil Protection first aid kit ZPJ-80, and in the upgrading of sets for secondary decontamination PCHB-60-P and PCHP-60-P are presented. First results of R D on universal solutions for detoxification of super-toxic lethal chemical warfare agents on human skin are shown and discussed. 

As the first Czechoslovak post-WW-II generation of means for personal decontamination at the lowest tactical level, i.e., at the individual first-aid level, we considered the two-solution system produced in Czechoslovakia according to the Soviet-originated model IPP-51. It was introduced under the acronym IPB-60 into the Czechoslovak Army, and under more simple modification in the first aid kit OZB into the Czechoslovak Civil Defence in the early 1960s. The same system was used for the secondary decontamination at the facilities of the medical evacuation chain (PCHB-60-P and PCHP-60-P). This system was based...

The researchers duplicated in the laboratory a common everyday situation in which a small group of people, in this case four people, must arrive at a decision. In the experiment the group s task was to rank, after 10 minutes of discussion, how important nine items (such as a first aid kit and a map) would be if one crash-landed on the moon. 

During World War II, American soldiers carried first aid kits containing sulfanilamide powder and tablets. Medics sprinkled the powder on open wounds to combat infection, and the tablets were to be swallowed to prevent and treat gangrene, pneumonia, and other battlefield illnesses. 

Know the location and proper use of safety and emergency equipment such as fire extinguishers and alarms, first-aid kits, safety showers, eyewash foimtains, emergency telephone numbers, and emergency exits. 

An approved fire extinguisher [the dry chemical (bicarbonate) type is preferred, but the CO2 type is satisfactory] should be mounted near at least one exit and refilled after every use, no matter how small. The laboratory should be arranged so as to provide two or more avenues of escape from any experimental setup in case of emergency. A first-aid kit containing Band-Aids, sterile gauze, adhesive tape, petroleum jelly, a mild antiseptic, sterile cotton swabs, tweezers, a set of sewing needles, a packet of razor blades, and a quick-reference first-aid manual will provide adequately for most minor emergencies.
