Unloading Evidence
• Wear a long sleeved lab coat with knit cuffs and over-the-cuff rubber
gloves. Use protective eyewear. Wear a protective mask if
appropriate.

biohazardous when loaded should be handled as biohazardous. If your
protocol required the use of evidence prefilters, remove them now and
store them appropriately.
