OTHER DEVICES WHICH EMIT RADIATION
There are other sources of radiation that could pose a risk if not used correctly.

• ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT (UV): Standard Operating Procedure and Fact Sheet
  These devices can be small handheld units, transilluminators, germicidal lamps in biosafety cabinets, or UV lights used in a large room space. The adverse health effects that may occur are erythema (sunburn), photokeratitis (a feeling of sand in the eyes), skin cancer, melanoma, cataracts, and retinal burns. These devices should always be used with caution, with special protection given to the eyes and skin. If you have any of these devices, please contact our office. We can supply a label to remind the operator to use protective gear or discuss the use of face shields.
