Microneedle drug delivery systems: Appraising opportunities for improving safety and assessing areas of concern
Publication date: Available online 29 April 2016 Source:Journal of Chemical Health and Safety Author(s): Martha Chege, Aaron McConville, James Davis Transdermal microneedles are regularly advocated as a much safer alternative to conventional hypodermic injections and an ever increasing range of systems are being developed. While there are clear advantages to their adoption, there are a number of safety issues that are emerging which have short and long term implications for patients, clinicians, healthcare administrators and regulators. A brief overview of microneedle design is presented and considered in a criti...

Exploding misconceptions: Developing a culture of safety through learner driven activities
Publication date: Available online 16 April 2016 Source:Journal of Chemical Health and Safety Author(s): Shayna Burchett, Annalise Pfaff, Jack Hayes, Klaus Woelk On the first day of class, many students enter freshman laboratory courses with an opinion that someone else will provide them with everything they need; a mentality often carried over into future courses and workplaces. This presumption causes frustration and unrealistic expectations when not addressed. On the contrary, a first activity of designing a safety contract, continued with an SDS activity, and reinforced by a strict wardrobe expectation refu...

Investigation of a light fixture fire
This article reports an investigation of a light fixture fire and reviews a case study of a metal-halide lamp fire. Causal analysis of the metal-halide lamp fire uncovered contributing factors that created the environment in which the incident occurred. Latent organizational conditions that created error-likely situations or weakened defenses were identified and controlled. Effective improvements that reduce the probability or consequence of similar metal-halide lamp fire incidents were implemented. (Source: Journal of Chemical Health and Safety)

Evaluation of the ECETOC TRA model for workplace inhalation exposure to ethylbenzene in Japan
In this study, estimated values of ethylbenzene obtained using ECETOC TRA were compared to measured values, and applicability of ECETOC TRA to the Japanese workplace was studied. Measured values and the work content collected from exposure field surveys conducted by the Japanese government in FY 2009 and FY 2010 were utilized for this study. The 137 tasks in 17 companies evaluated were related to manufacturing and painting. The process categories (PROCs) related to ECETOC TRA were selected for manufacturing (PROC 2, 3, 4, 5, 14, 8a, 8b, 9, 13, or 15) and painting (PROC 7 or 10). The results showed that most of the estimate...
