The National Substitution Group for Chemical Products
The National Substitution Group (NSG) is a national network of people from universities, county councils and regions, with the aim of helping to replace hazardous chemicals in research and education as well as health- and medical care.
Exchange List
The group's work on substitution has resulted in an substitution list that gives concrete proposals for substitutions of chemicals, handling routines and methods.
Review the list at your department and substitute your hazardous substances for the proposed alternative products. Each substitution has been successfully implemented in at least one of the network organisations. The list is continuously updated with new substitutions.

University participation
Uppsala University is represented in the group by the University's chemical coordinator. The group meets regularly at different locations in Sweden.
