Comparative solvent study acts as safety indicator

Edited by the Processingtalk editorial team Aug 24, 2006

Enviro Tech Europe have made a DVD available, presenting an extensive human cell bioassay study of commonly used vapour degreasing solvents

Enviro Tech Europe have been highly commended for their commitment to science when assessing the use of solvents in vapour degreasing.

An extensive human cell bioassay study of commonly used vapour degreasing solvents can now be viewed on-line or from DVD.

The DVD features Chris Barry, a nationally respected figure in infection control and leading conference speaker in the UK and abroad.

Putting his extensive knowledge of microbiology to use he advises on appropriate cleaning products and techniques for individual industries.

He is committed to user awareness of safe practice in industry.

This combination of science and explanation clears the confusion that exists when considering safety.

Such studies relate more directly to the effects of solvents on humans.

To request a copy of the DVD please go to the website.
