Calscience’s sole laboratory
facility, located in Garden Grove, CA, is a 30,000 square foot
ultra-modern building originally designed and constructed as an
environmental laboratory.
|
|
Calscience’s laboratory facility
is comprised of numerous individual laboratories for VOCs, SVOCs,
Extractions, LUFT, Air, Inorganics, Trace Metals, Bioassay, plus many
other areas such as glassware preparation, glassware storage,
instrument maintenance, offices, etc.
Each laboratory and its associated HVAC systems are designed to
minimize potential cross contamination with the entire building
maintained under a slight positive pressure to preclude the entry of
trace contaminants that may occasionally be present outside of the
building. All waste
management activities are undertaken in areas exterior to the
building.
|
|
Calscience’s Sample Control area
contains three large sample coolers; one exclusively limited to
aqueous samples for VOC determinations.
Each cooler is continuously temperature monitored and
electronically linked to the burglary and fire alarm system.
Thus, in the unlikely event of a cooler temperature increase
outside of limits, key personnel are notified.
