Lab 7: Biosafety
Learning Outcomes
• Explain how a biosafety containment level III laboratory is constructed (e.g. air flow and
pressure control).
• Explain the basic safety rules of a biosafety containment level III laboratory (e.g. use of
safety equipment).
• Handle microorganisms in a biosafety containment level III laboratory.
, • Explain the concept of fumigation and how this is executed within a microbiological
safety cabinet.
Introduction: Experiment with biosafety virtual simulation lab
In the Biosafety simulation, you will be introduced to the concept of laboratory containment,
which is a very special type of laboratory required to work with hazardous pathogens.
Laboratory containment
Containment in this context refers to the requirements set out by various bodies to safely
manipulate such pathogens. In this simulation, you will be able to experience a containment
level 3 (Biosafety Level 3 or BSL3) research laboratory.
Learn about lab safety
You will become familiar with the basic protocols utilized to ensure safety, and you will be
presented with the specific basic safety rules for this type of laboratory (e.g. personal protective
equipment (PPE) and primary containment). In addition, you will learn how every part of the
laboratory is designed to avoid contamination. This includes learning about why the pressure in
the laboratory needs to be controlled at all times (secondary containment), and how the
microbiological safety cabinets are designed to offer protection).
Identify the hazard
In the biosafety simulation you will be presented with a hypothetical case where you will need
to identify a potential bioterrorism agent that is classed as a hazard group three microorganism.
Please note that this simulation has been developed broadly around UK regulations. Some
protocols may differ depending on the specific regulations.
