What Is Chemical Inventory?

Chemicals can be used in many different places and laboratories with many different purposes. Among one of the main issues is that if improperly managed, chemicals can pose a severe risk and hence why a Chemical Inventory should be created. The principles and formulas need to be kept documented in an accurate manner and for this reason, a Chemical Inventory template should be utilized which will allow any scientist or person with access to a laboratory to keep a record of all inventory.

Alternate Name:

• Chemical Inventory List.

All chemicals and other pieces of equipment that are crucial in the operation of a laboratory such as conical flasks, test tubes, beakers and pipettes should also be carefully monitored and recorded. By keeping a record of this, you will know exactly what has happened to each specific item in your inventory. This way it is possible to know if something was broken, something was wasted, stolen or perhaps arrived damaged from the supplier. It is best to designate a specific group of people that are tasked with managing the inventory – one person is usually not enough and can be risky if theft occurs.

Chemicals can be expensive, dangerous and specific types can be used to make potentially lethal chemical components. Therefore, it is your responsibility to ensure that you can answer for every item in the inventory. The more details you provide, the better and safer your laboratory will be. Consider including details concerning:

• The names along with chemical formulas;
• The number of items;
• Their molecular concentration along with their volume;
• Information concerning storage conditions.
