Advisory Committee on Dangerous Pathogens

Advisory Committee on Dangerous Pathogens (1984), Hazards and Precaution for Handling of Blood Borne Pathogens, HHG, Washington, D.C. [Pg.226]

World Health Organization (WHO) identify Biosafety Levels 1,2, 3, and 4 and in the United Kingdom the Advisory Committee on Dangerous Pathogens (ACDP) categorizes Laboratory Containment Levels 1, 2, 3, and 4 (4-6). All share the same objective to identify biosafety or laboratory containment levels that minimize the risk to the laboratory worker, to the outside community, and to the environment. At Biosafety/Laboratory Containment Level 2, exposure risks to the laboratory worker arise mainly from contact through a contaminated work environment. As the risk of airborne infection increases, Biosafety/ Laboratory Containment Level 3 provides facilities to prevent aerosol transmission. Additional safeguards to protect the outside community and the environment are found at Biosafety/Laboratory Containment Level 4, which is... [Pg.17]

The Acinetobacter strain from which CHMO is derived is a Class II pathogen as defined by the Advisory Committee on Dangerous Pathogens (ACDP), and hence, may only be handled in suitably equipped microbiological facilities. One solution to... [Pg.1240]
