Research technician

The excellent laboratory assistance rendered by research technicians Henry J. Franklin and Salvatore J. Pace is greatly appreciated. 

This book describes the principal physico-chemical techniques for characterising the catalysts used in searching for new active phases, optimising the formulation and monitoring industrial production. Based on courses given at the Institut Fran ais du Petrole for research technicians in the fields of kinetics and catalysis, this book covers useful basic theory and provides numerous examples of industrial applications. 

There is a semantics problem that confuses and frustrates most marketing and advertising people. I realize that research technicians must have precise terms in order to measure and report scientifically. 

Electricians, instrument technicians, lab/research technicians, machinists, mechanical craftsmen, and process technicians work as a team to control the operations of a plant (see Figure 1-13). They work with chemists, engineers, secretarial and clerical staff, attorneys, legal assistants, computer specialists, industrial hygienists, and human resource analysts. Each of these occupations starts at different pay rates. The primary financial difference among the four craft occupations and process is shift differential and overtime. Most operating facilities run between 20% and 25%...

I view this text as a guide and reference, a sort of road map to biomedical safety. Learning proper safety principles and techniques at the onset of laboratory work is a great advantage to students just embarking on research careers, as it will lead to the development of safe habits in research work. Safety education is also essential for the research technician starting to work at an industrial biomedical laboratory. Finally, even experienced workers will find this book useful, as it serves as a reminder of unsafe practices. I sincerely hope that this text will help you to learn more about laboratory safety and to make your lab a safer place to work.
