General Laboratory Practices: Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Respirators
For certain protocols and projects, additional PPE such as respiratory protection may be required. Respirator selection is based on the hazard and the protection factor required. Personnel who require respiratory protection must contact the ORCBS for assistance in selection of proper equipment and training in its usage. All personnel wearing respirators need to be included in MSU's Respiratory Protection Program which includes a medical evaluation, initial training and fit-testing and annual retraining.
