KLARA
KLARA is the chemical registration system for all chemicals and the risk assessment system at the department.
For an introduction to Klara, please watch this film
Each purchased chemical must be registered in the system and a barcode needs to be attached to the container. This is done by the KLARA inventory officer that each research group has.
The group leader (principal investigator) appoints a person responsible for KLARA. (KLARA Inventory officer).
In KLARA you can:
Check what chemicals are available in your group or at MMK or other departments at SU
- For information at MMK go to “start page” and use the “find” function
- For information at SU use the tab “chemical products“ on the top of the KLARA page
Check the Material Safety Data Sheet information (MSDS) for chemicals/solvents/gases
Create/Upload/find risk assessments for experiments. PI needs to approve and sign the risk assessment. The signed hard copy should be found in the lab of the respective experiment.
Find out which substances require an investigation and/or permit or an exemption to use/store!!
For example: Mercury needs an exemption
The application document page is found in KLARA where the mercury compounds are listed. The official application for the permit is done through KEMI.
Contact the local Laboratory safety coordinator at MMK (by filling the Usage of Mercury form) and KLARA Administrator for further information of how to proceed.
Duties of KLARA inventory officer:
Register new products purchased in the research group, and add new/updated MSDSs into the system
- Print out barcodes for the new chemicals/solvents/gases
- Check that the labels on containers are correct, no old pictograms are allowed anymore.
- Unregister discarded products in KLARA
- KLARA inventory of all chemicals in the research group.
- Answer the questions about KLARA in your research group
KLARA inventory officer needs to attend a course on the KLARA system. The courses are organized regularly by SU.
Contact the KLARA local administrator when problems and questions arise
Inventory is done annually at the department. The period is January to February every year.
The local administrator for the KLARA-system at the department is Mirva Eriksson.
The local laboratory safety coordinator at MMK is Ulrike Schimpf.

Tracking Gas Tubes
-
Gas storage rooms have a list of gases on the magnetic door board
-
If you remove a gas tube you must take its magnetic sticker label with it and put it on the similar door board outside your lab
-
New magnetic stickers can be ordered from Work Environment group
-
This procedure allows us to know the whereabouts of the gas tubes (fire security issue)
