Sourcing & Safety
In any research organization that uses chemistry, the sourcing, storage,
and disposal of research chemicals is a major challenge. Sifting through
pages of chemical catalogs is a poor use of time for any research scientists
and purchasing agent. Environmental, Heath and Safety (EH&S) processes
must be well defined to ensure compliance with laws, regulations and
an organization’s own safety policies. CambridgeSoft's Sourcing & Safety
databases and applications can streamline these tasks to help control
costs and improve efficiency.
Databases:
ChemACX
ChemACX is a comprehensive online catalog containing current product
information from 405 leading chemical supplier catalogs such as Sigma
Aldrich, Fisher, Acros, Alfa Aesar, Lancaster, Novabiochem (EMD Biosciences,
Inc.), and TCI America (View all suppliers listed in ChemACX.)
ChemMSDX
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are documents designed to provide
both workers and emergency response personnel with information and
proper procedures for handling or working with a particular chemical
substance. MSDSs include information on the chemical's identity; physical
and chemical characteristics; physical and health hazards; toxicity;
primary routes of entry; exposure limits; whether the chemical is a
carcinogen; precautions for safe handling and use; spill or leak control
measures; emergency and first aid procedures; storage, disposal, and
transportation, and more all in a standardized format. ChemMSDX is
a database of material safety data sheets for thousands of products
listed in CambridgeSoft's available chemicals database, ChemACX.
