Laboratory Environments
A laboratory environment is a controlled setting where scientific research, experiments, and measurements are conducted. These spaces are equipped with specialized tools and instruments, such as microscopes, centrifuges, and spectrophotometers, to facilitate various types of analysis. Laboratories can be found in various fields, including biology, chemistry, and physics.
Safety is a crucial aspect of laboratory environments. Proper protocols, such as wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) like gloves and goggles, help protect researchers from hazardous materials. Additionally, laboratories often have safety equipment, including eyewash stations and fire extinguishers, to ensure a safe working atmosphere for all personnel.
