What safety precautions should you take when using a Bunsen burner?
Bunsen burners are a fire hazard and should not be left unattended. However, accidents can occur even when the burner is off. Check the tubing connecting the gas line to the burner to be certain there are no cracks and it is secure. If the tubing is dislodged and the gas line valve is not off, gas will fill the room creating a potential explosion situation. This has happened. There are safer alternatives to the classic Bunsen burner. A Flame Boy or a Touch-o-matic burner eliminates the issue of a constant flame. A bacticinerator can be used to sterilize plating loops. There are also glass bead sterilizers that may be used.
