Hi!
I accidently stored some ml of chloroform in a 50 ml falcon tube
outside of the
fume hood for some time (we of course nrmally keep these tubes within
the
hood). I was shocked when i looked at the tube this morning and saw it
was
empty, ie the solvent had diffused out.
I have learnt never to make this mistake again, but could this have
long term
conequences for me and my collegues, or is the risk low, so i can count
this
as a learning experience?
No way. Assuming there is any kind of ventillation (there has to be!),
the
rate of evaporation is bound to be low enough to not produce anything
near dangerous levels.

especially when that was a 1-time event, rather than a chronic exposure
over years.
