Best practice PPE for students pouring chemicals in a biology lab:

- Chemical splash goggles (not just safety glasses)
- Buttoned lab coat or chemical-resistant apron
- Appropriate chemical-resistant gloves (e.g., nitrile)
- Closed-toe shoes and socks (no sandals)
- Long pants (no shorts or skirts that leave legs exposed)
- Hair tied back and away from face; remove dangling jewelry and loose clothing

Notes: use a fume hood for volatile or hazardous vapors; avoid contact lenses with corrosive/irritating chemicals when possible; choose glove material appropriate to the chemicals used.
