abstract
This standard operating procedure (SOP) document was prepared as a template that individual researchers can customize for their own use. Prior to publication, this SOP underwent peer review by the McMaster University Faculty of Health Sciences Research Council. The Council has endorsed the publication of this SOP to encourage researchers to develop procedures that encourage best research practices and can be customized to meet specific needs.
Should you decide to customize this SOP for your own use, please acknowledge the original authors, who include Ms. D’Andra Parker and Mr. Asim Soomro (graduate students in the Hayward laboratory). All items highlighted in yellow in the SOP must be customized.
This procedure outlines the steps involved in proper recording keeping in the laboratory. This SOP applies any/all data generated while in the laboratory, and any/all the laboratory records.
