WETLAB
-Protocol-
Protocols
We conducted our experiments by following the protocols below. As an official procedure, lab workers should understand the lab experiment assigned to them along with safety procedures before starting lab work. The protocols are arranged according to the order of experiments we followed.
The rule of thumb is:
1
Start with reading Safety Questions for overview.
2
Follow Elan Vital Safety Rules all the time.
3
Before entering the laboratory, read
GMS General Safety Rules
and GMS Extra Rules again and follow them
4
If you are unsure of the rules or confused,
ask lab assistant and/or
instructor before doing anything.
To The Top
We have conducted our experiments at Gachon University. Thus, we have always observed safety rules of the lab. We had Safety Education & Training Session
before starting our lab work. Also, when we conducted our experiments, Gachon University staff supervised our work.
Gachon University General Lab Safety Rule

7
Pour into empty petri dishes
just enough to cover the surface
(~20 mL per plate).
In case that bubbles are in
the plate, heat the plate surface
carefully with a burner only
until the bubbles are
burst but the solution is heated.
8
Leave the plates at room
temperature around one hour
until it is solidified.
9
Solidified plates should be
turned upside down for a
few hours at room temperature,
then stored at 4°C.
10
Person who leaves the lab last must make sure that power is disconnected, flammable material is isolated, dangerous material is safely kept, water is disconnected, lab is cleaned and locked, and order of the lab must be double- checked.
11
Power wiring appliance must be properly installed to accommodate the experiments. Cables, and lines must be checked regularly to confirm that they are capable of handling the electrical load.

22
Reagents container or cabinets for storing reagents must be kept in cool, well-ventilated places without direct sunlight, and far away from fire and heat sources.
23
Experimental drugs shall be stored in a way not to be shaken by outside shock, and so that its storage bottles do not fall
24
Toxic materials shall be handled using protective films, or other safety tents to prevent damages from splatter, heating or explosion so as to ensure the safety of the experimenter.
25
Containers for chemical wastes shall not be left in the hallway or on the stairs, and shall not be stored in the corners of the laboratory or other invisible places.
26
When performing microbiological tests, gloves shall be worn, and after the experiment, the used glassware shall be washed through sterilization, and disposable supplies and medium shall be disposed of separately from general garbage.
27
Inflammable chemicals including acetone, oil, or gas must be kept in the place where ventilation is easy and access is infrequent.
28
Importing and exporting of high-pressure gas container must be done using transportation equipment.
29
When storing high-pressure gas containers, they must be safely and firmly fixed, isolated from flammable substances and inflammatory materials.
Other significant Safety Considerations.
1. Fire Regulations.
When fire breaks out, the following guidelines shall apply.
1)
Save lives.
2)
Call the fire brigade.
3)
Alert people in the area.
4)
Extinguish the fire if possible.
5)
Close doors to the area.
6)
Evacuate.
7)
Reassemble outside the building at the designated meeting point.
Also it is very important to know the locations of the fire-fighting equipment, fire alarms, and evacuation routes closest to the lab.
A small fire can be extinguished quickly by smothering it in a fire blanket or by spraying it with a fire extinguisher.
Lab fires in biological labs are caused most commonly by the plating of cell cultures.
To prevent this,
1
Never use paper bench coat near burners.
2
Use a low reservoir volume of ethanol.
3
Place the ethanol reservoir at least a foot from the burner and on the opposite side of the burner from the plates
4
Never wear plastic gloves when working with a flame.
5
Carry the gas container for the burner carefully with a firm grip. If it is dropped, make sure that there is no leakage by smelling for gas.
6
Notify the instructor of any gas leakage and do not light burners when there is a smell of gas.
7
Always light the match before opening the gas valve.
8
Avoid placing burners too close to overhanging shelves.
9
Never leave the table while a burner is on.
CHEMICALS
On each chemical container, there is a label that specifies the potential danger of the substance for humans and/or the environment.
Chemicals should be handled cautiously with gloves, both for your safety and for decreasing the contamination risk.
Always wear a lab coat and shoes as additional protection. Read the signs on the chemical container and the Material Safety Data Sheet
(MSDS; available online) for further direction.
BIO- SAFETY AND DISPOSAL
When you are working to generate new organisms by molecular methods, you are regulated in most countries
according to international biosafety guidelines:

When working with microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses, there are four BioSafety Levels (BSL) numbered BSL1–4.
Biosafety level is the level of the biocontainment precautions required to isolate dangerous biological agents in an enclosed
The levels of containment range from the lowest biosafety level 1 to the highest at level 4, and Ministry of Health and Welfare and Korea Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention have specified these levels facility.
Biocontainment can be classified by the relative danger to the surrounding environment as biological
safety levels. As of 2006, there are four safety levels. These are called BSL1 through BSL4
BSL 1
1
involving well-characterized agents not known to consistently cause disease in healthy adult humans and of minimal potential hazard to laboratory personnel and the environment.
2

3
The laboratory is not necessarily separated from the general traffic patterns in the building.
4
Conducted on open bench tops using standard microbiological practices.

Laboratory personnel have specific training in the procedures conducted in the laboratory.
6
Supervised by a scientist with proper training.
7
Contaminated materials are left in open waste receptacles.
BSL 2

All procedures involving the manipulation of infectious materials are conducted within biological safety cabinets, specially designed hoods, or other physical containment devices.
6
The laboratory personals should wear appropriate personal protective clothing and equipment.
7
An acceptable level of safety for the conduct of routine procedures, may be achieved in a biosafety level 2 facility, providing the filtered exhaust air from the laboratory room is discharged to the outdoors.
8
The ventilation to the laboratory is balanced to provide directional airflow into the room.
9
Access to the laboratory is restricted when work is in progress and the recommended Standard Microbiological Practices, Special Practices, and Safety Equipment for Biosafety Level 3 are rigorously followed.
BSL 4
