| Abstract: | Amoebae potentially able to cause severe eye infections were isolated from 31 of 56 eyewash stations. Eyewash stations that contained a reservoir presented a greater hazard than those without a reservoir. The need to flush eyewash stations regularly as part of safe laboratory practices is emphasized. |
