Safety First!
Saving the world starts with saving ourselves. You cannot save the world unless you’re in good shape. We put safety on the top priority
in any lab works. We have been informed accurately of the lab safety rules as well as bio-safety regulations at the
initial stage of the project in order to understand hazards and safety procedures. Also we received safety training from our instructor
before commencing our lab work. Even though our project is included Bio-Safety Level 1, we know very well that
there are still many risks that may be escalated into serious disaster. Furthermore, even when handling those risks that may not pose serious
threats to the experienced scientists, we as young learners should be extra careful.
So, Let's begin by watching a video:
The rule of thumb is:
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
Other significant Safety Considerations.
1. Fire Regulations.
When fire breaks out, the following guidelines shall apply.
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,
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
