A brief description of the program:
The system is called CISPro, a web-based system that tracks all laboratory chemicals in the Chemistry, Biology, and Food & Nutrition departments. Among its many other uses, users can search for a chemical to see if anyone else has it if they only need a small amount. Unwanted chemicals have also been redistributed with it. The Chemical Hygiene Officer always checks first to see if anyone else wants a chemical before disposing of it.
