An example SDS, including guidance for handling a hazardous substance and information on its composition and properties. A safety data sheet (SDS), [1] material safety data sheet (MSDS), or product safety data sheet (PSDS) is a document that lists information relating to occupational safety and health for the use of various substances and products.
Statements which correspond to related hazards are grouped together by code number, so the numbering is not consecutive. The code is used for reference purposes, for example to help with translations, but it is the actual phrase which should appear on labels and safety data sheets. [4]
Safety data sheet, on chemicals; Sodium dodecyl sulfate, a synthetic organic compound SDS-PAGE, sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; Shwachman–Diamond syndrome, a congenital disorder; Sudden death syndrome, a soybean disease
Precautionary statements form part of the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS). [1] They are intended to form a set of standardized phrases giving advice about the correct handling of chemical substances and mixtures, which can be translated into different languages.
Example: R: 34-37 Causes burns, irritating to the respiratory system. Slashes indicate fixed combinations of single phrases. Example: R: 36/37/38 Irritating to eyes, respiratory system and skin. More detailed hazard and safety information can be found in the material safety data sheets (MSDS) of a compound.
However, there are some direct consequences of including a substance on the list of SVHCs. Suppliers of pure SVHCs must provide their customers with a safety data sheet (SDS). [14] Suppliers of mixtures of substances which contain more than 0.1% by weight of any SVHC must provide their customers with a safety data sheet on request. [15]
BOD test bottles at the laboratory of a wastewater treatment plant. Biochemical oxygen demand (also known as BOD or biological oxygen demand) is an analytical parameter representing the amount of dissolved oxygen (DO) consumed by aerobic bacteria growing on the organic material present in a water sample at a specific temperature over a specific time period.
