Hello all, We would like to remind everyone that the food pantry is a resource dedicated to supporting those in our community who are in need.

To ensure that we can continue to provide for those who truly need assistance, we kindly ask that you refrain from taking food from the pantry bin. Your cooperation is essential in helping us maintain this vital service for our community.

Autoclave Room 205 trash
by Jayne Stratton 28 Mar '25

28 Mar '25

To all autoclave/glassware washer users, The attached picture was taken of the trash container in autoclave room 205. This is unacceptable. ALL disposable gloves should be disposed of PROPERLY in the labs, according to each laboratory's protocols. Beside the point of simply throwing gloves on the floor for someone else to clean up, the basic protocol is that disposable gloves are not worn outside of the lab, so they should not appear in trash containers in any general use areas. We would like the custodians to empty the trash in that room, but they will not do that if gloves with potential contamination are being tossed in them. The trash containers are for paper towels, old autoclave recording paper, or other non-hazardous disposable items. To those in charge of labs, please ensure your personnel are following your protocols for disposable glove use. Thanks!

3rd Floor Walk-In Refrigerator
by Kristin Beede 25 Mar '25

25 Mar '25

All, I just finished up with our lab groups EHS inspection and they had questions of ownership for items in room S317 (walk-in refrigerator that is located on the 3rd floor next to the ice machine). Attached are pictures of the shelves in the walk-in where we need to determine ownership. Please contact me by April 4th if some of these items are yours so we can properly label them. Whatever is not spoken for by April 4th will be DISCARDED. Thanks, Kristin [cid:image001.gif@01DB9D97.E9A7EA80] Kristin Beede, MS Ramer-Tait Lab, Research Lab Manager II Food Science & Technology University of Nebraska-Lincoln 1901 N. 21st Street Rm207 Lincoln, NE 68588 kristin.beede(a)unl.edu 3084402320<tel:3084402320>
