Laboratory Work Processes
A maximum of forty (40) students will be allowed in all laboratory rooms, except for the Research Laboratory which can accommodate twenty-five (25) students only.
For laboratory room reservation and for requests of reagents, apparatus, and materials students, faculty, and guests should fill up the form that are available at the Science Laboratory Web page and send it to the following
Manila – sciencelab@sanbeda.edu.ph
Rizal – jhssciencelab@sanbeda.edu.ph
shssciencelab@sanbeda.edu.ph
Reservations and requests must be emailed at least two working days prior to the experiment. An acknowledgement note will be sent upon receipt of request. If the request is cancelled, cancellation must be done within the two-day period.
To avoid long queues of students and faculty in getting the requested materials in the laboratory office/workstation and stock room, the requested reagents, apparatus, and other materials will be brought to the classroom by the laboratory aides.
On-the-spot requests for reagents, apparatus and materials will not be entertained, especially during peak hours.
Ten (10) minutes of each class will be allocated for the laboratory aides to deliver & collect materials, as well as to clean the room after each use.
For Professors/Faculty/Students: *
Wear laboratory gowns always. A student will not be allowed to enter the room if he/she does not comply.
Throw disposable gloves and face masks in the designated trash bin.
Faculty members must inform the office upon dismissal of classes or after using the room.
All equipment must be cleaned before leaving the room.
Faculty members must be present with their students in the laboratory, especially during experiments.
For Guest/Supplier *

Guidelines for Reservation for the Online Use of Anatomage.
Provide the office with the schedule of online classes.
Fill out the downloadable form for the use of Anatomage.
Requests must be made at least 2 days before the activity to avoid overlapping of schedule.
Only one faculty member can use the Anatomage at the scheduled time.
All science faculty members will be given the chance to use the equipment. The office would see to it that NO faculty monopolizes the use.
