Abstract: Laboratory safety is a crucial foundation for talent cultivation and scientific innovation in universities. However, the management of hazardous chemicals remains a significant weak point in university laboratory safety. This paper analyzes the current state of hazardous chemical management in university laboratories and proposes feasible measures to enhance this management. These measures include safety education and access control, the establishment of a robust laboratory safety culture, and the implementation of full life cycle traceability management for hazardous chemicals. The goal is to further standardize hazardous chemical safety management in university laboratories, mitigate safety risks, and ensure the smooth operation of these facilities.

Key words: Laboratory safety, Hazardous chemicals, Traceability management, Safety management
