... The following four hypothetical scenarios demonstrate how to use the tools described in this Guide to Developing Standard Operating Procedures. The entries in the four forms were completed by the expert committee and are solely for illustrative purposes; real situations will call for procedures that are suited to the specific laboratory surroundings and personnel.

... After reviewing section 9.7.4 of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine report, A Guide to Prudent Chemical Management, the researcher discovers special hazards that may be encountered when filtering the hydrogen-saturated catalyst from the flammable organic reactants. Suggested solution: To minimize fires and explosions during the filtration step, the researcher goes through a hazard assessment checklist.

... When the student picks up the chemical reagent, the laboratory manager provides a copy of the Safety Data Sheet, notes the hazardous nature of the chemical, and recommends that the student speak with his or her professor before running the first reaction to discuss safe handling for the reaction. In that discussion, the student and professor agree that a Moderate Risk SOP should be drafted for the use of this reagent.
