Line 20:
This should be a complete inventory of the chemicals being stored at rLab, if you've used or replaced any of the chemicals then please update this inventory to reflect that. Any chemical found in the cupboards that does not appear in this inventory will be immediately removed and disposed of.
 
stock=== Stock chemicals ===
These are the chemicals that are frequently and generally useful so we maintain a stock of them for member to use. If your use of them takes the actual stock level below the expected stock level then post on the mailing list and re-stocking will be arranged. If you are finding you need to routinely use a chemical that is not on this list, please raise it on the mailing list or with the downstairs team and we'll consider if it should be made a stock chemical.
