Overview
There are four general chemistry labs in each target station providing visitors with areas close to their beamlines for final sample preparation, cell loading and cleaning facilities. These labs house general chemistry lab equipment as well as some more specialised equipment.

Access Policy
Currently there is open access to all these labs and they are within restricted access controlled areas. As with any access to the experimental halls, completion of facility safety test and dosimeters are required. Click here to access the facility safety test.
Safety Information and Working Practices
General equipment in the lab and the lab itself is covered by risk assessments displayed within the lab. But any work in the lab must be risk assessed either in the ERA or by completing a separate assessment. Lone working permission will be granted by the lab manager after reviewing the risk assessments and ensuring that suitable measures are in place. Please speak to the lab manager well in advance to organise this.
