Health Monitoring
There are certain substances that may have cumulative effects on the health of individuals using them – heavy metal salts are a prime example of this. If an individual intends to use a substance in the lab that, according to the COSSH assessment, falls into this category it may be necessary for them to undergo tests at regular intervals to ensure there are no lasting effects from the use of these substances. It is of course recommended that these substances are not used unless absolutely essential.
