[EHSResearchers] EH&S 12 Months of Research Safety: Mercury Thermometers

[Patrick Monnig]

Hello UCR researchers,

Hope you all had a successful Spring Quarter, and to everyone graduating congratulations!

The June 2023 12 Months of Research Safety is on Mercury Thermometers.  As I mentioned last month, we have seen an uptick in the number of mercury thermometer breakages on campus, which have significant impacts to you and your lab.  Use the information in the flyer to learn about the dangers of mercury, identify if you have any mercury thermometers in the lab, and request a free replacement from us.  If you have questions or need help determining if your thermometers are filled with mercury, contact us at ehslaboratory at ucr.edu<mailto:ehslaboratory at ucr.edu>.

If you have questions about anything research safety related, please send us a message at ehslaboratory at ucr.edu<mailto:ehslaboratory at ucr.edu>.  All of our previous 12 Months of Research Safety flyers are available on our website at https://ehs.ucr.edu/laboratory/12monthsofresearchsafety.  Subscription to this listserv is based on membership in an active LHAT and is updated on a monthly basis.

Thanks,
Patrick
