Home Project Team Policy & Practice Protocols Safety


Safety

All our team members received safety and operational training before working in the lab. This included training in good laboratory practice, waste disposal and the idiosyncchrasies of working in a hackspace lab. The appropriate personal protective equipment was used which included lab coats gloves and where necessary safety spectacles.

All work that was required to be carried out in a CL1 or greater environment took place in the labs of UCL Biochemical Engineering department. This work was overseen by and was carried out in accordance with the guidelines of [TODO] UCL Bio safety men. UK regulations were adhered to.

Work with Escherichia coli strain DH5-Alpha was considered low risk in accordance with classification from German TRBA as a Risk Group 1 organism.

Work with wild type Gluconacetobacter hansenii LMG1524 (ATCC 23769) was considered low risk in accordance with classification from German TRBA as a Risk Group 1 organism.

Additionally, our procedures for removing bacteria from cellulose products were informed by work done by iGEM 2014 team Imperial College London.
