Manganese deficiency (plant) soil pH. Two materials commonly used for lowering the soil pH are aluminum sulfate and sulfur. Aluminum sulfate will change the soil pH instantly because the aluminum produces the acidity as soon as it dissolves in the soil. Sulfur, however, requires some time for the conversion to sulfuric acid with the aid of soil bacteria. If the soil pH is not a problem and there is no manganese actually in the soil then Foliar feeding for small plants and medicaps for large trees are both common ways for homeowners to get manganese into the plant.

Hazard symbol carry a significant health risk (biohazards), including viral samples and used hypodermic needles (see sharps waste). The biohazard symbol was developed by the Dow Chemical Company in 1966 for their containment products. According to Charles Baldwin, an environmental-health engineer who contributed to its development: "We wanted something that was memorable but meaningless, so we could educate people as to what it means." In an article in "Science" in 1967, the symbol was presented as the new standard for all biological hazards ("biohazards"). The article explained that over 40 symbols were drawn up by Dow artists, and all of the symbols
