BACTERIOLOGY Flashcards
protection and control for biological materials to prevent their unauthorized access, loss, theft, diversion, or intentional release
BIOSECURITY
prevents biocrime
biosecurity
protects GERMS from PEOPLE
biosecurity
- personnel security (access controls)
- physical security (CCTV, password-protected doors, material control, quarantine, policy)
Biosecurity
containment principles and practices to prevent UNINTENTIONAL EXPOSURE to pathogens and toxins or their UNINTENTIONAL RELEASE
biosafety
protect people from germs
biosafety
use of basic PPE
biosafety
Gown->Mask->Goggles->Gloves
Donning
Gloves, Goggles, Gown, Mask
Doffing
highest rank in LRN; responsible for the definitive characterization (molecular sequencing)
Nation Laboratories
second rank in LRN; has the reagents and technology for confirmatory testing
Reference Laboratories
lowest rank in LRN; detects and recognizes a possible bioterrorism
Sentinel Laboratories
Universal Precaution
treat all human blood and certain body fluids as infectious for blood borne pathogens
modification of Universal Precaution but do not recommend hand washing on a non-visibly soiled hands after removal of gloves
Body Substance Isolation
apply only to blood and all bloody fluid secretions except sweat, non intact skin and mucous membrane
standard precaution
_____ receptors should be fit tested per personel
N95
this is based on microorganisms’ MOT, Infective dose, stability, and host range
biosafety level
a systematic process of gathering info and evaluating the likelihood & consequences of exposure to hazard
risk assessment
Biosafety levels
- BSL-I
- BSL-II
- BSL-III
- BSL-IV
risk groups
risk group 1 - minimal risk
risk group 2 - moderate risk
risk group 3 - high risk
risk group 4 - extreme risk
Mycobacterium gordonae, B. subtilis, Naegleria grubei
BSL-I, Risk Group 1
BSL-II; Risk Group 2
Common human pathogens, Salmonella, HIV, HBV, Influenza, Toxoplasma, F. tularensis, Prions (Lahat ng common e.g. Staph, Strep, Enterobacter)
BSL-III; Risk Group 3
Indigenous or Exotic Organisms, Mold stages of Systemic fungi, St. Louis Encephalitis, M. tuberculosis, Chlamydophila psittaci, Coxiella burneti, toxins of Clostridium, Cultures of F. tularensis, Y. pestis
BSL-IV; Risk Group 4
