Improving Chemical Security with Material Control and Accountability and Inventory Management

Journal of Chemical Education

Straut Langlinais, Christine M.; Nelson, Andrew W.

Chemical risk management is a process to control safety and security risks associated with hazardous chemicals. Chemical risk management includes the management of both chemical safety and chemical security. It is generally accepted that there are five pillars that make up chemical security management. Each of the five pillars are key components to the implementation of a chemical security risk management system. In this work, we will review the "Material Control and Accountability"pillar and how an academic institution can implement this principle using a chemical inventory management system (CIMS). A robust CIMS will improve the quality and efficiency of research, reduce time and resources associated with laboratory management, and reduce both the safety and security risks associated with chemicals.

Chemical Security Principles of Material Control and Accountability (MC&A) using a Chemical Inventory Management System

Journal of Chemical Education

Straut Langlinais, Christine M.

Chemical Risk Management is a system or process to control safety and security risks associated with hazardous or toxic chemicals. Chemical Risk Management includes the management of both chemical safety and chemical security. There are five pillars that make up chemical security management10 (Figure 1). Each of the five pillars are key components to the implementation of a chemical security risk management system. In this paper, we will review the "Material Control and Accountability" pillar and how an academic institution can implement this principle using a chemical inventory management system.
