<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Everyone, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There was an incident this afternoon in 310 and 320 in which the 0.1 M copper (II) nitrate was not present after the cart check. This caused a delay in the students being able to complete their experiment. It seems in this situation there
were multiple contributing factors: <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">The individuals doing the cart check were swapping individual bottles instead of the entire bin.
<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoListParagraph"><b>preventative measure:</b> For experiments that use several reagents, and the reagents are all contained in a small bin or bucket, the whole bucket/bin should be swapped. Essentially, when doing a cart change for QUL, all bottles
should be put back in the bin, and a new bin is swapped for the old one. <o:p></o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="2" type="1">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">The TAs in these rooms did not notify the appropriate people in a timely manner.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoListParagraph"><b>preventative measure: </b>TA’s could be reminded to notify their Head TA, the window, or an ALS of missing or incorrect materials as soon as possible.<b><o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would like to reiterate that in the Prep Lab our goal is not to have a zero defects operation, this is unrealistic. Our goal is to prevent issues from reaching the students, and to respond to them as quickly as possible to avoid delay.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to discuss anything about this situation.
