Biosafety vs Biosecurity Flashcards
containment principle technologies and practices implemented to prevent unintentional exposure to pathogens
biosafety
institutional and personal security measures intended to prevent the loss, theft, misuse, diversion, or intentional release of pathogens and toxins
biosecurity
how many classifications do infectious micro organisms have?
4 risk groups
what risk group and unlikely to cause human or animal disease
risk group1
what risk group ang unlikely to be a significant risk to the laboratory workers, the community, livestock, and environment?
risk group 2
what risk group causes moderate individual risk and limited community risk
risk group 2
what risk group ang low individual risk and community risk
risk group 1
what risk group includes microorganisms that are known to cause serious disease to humans and animals.
risk group 3
what risk group may pose a significant risk to laboratory workers
risk group 3
what risk group and high individual risk and limited to moderate community risk
risk group 3
what risk group include microorganisms that are known to cause LIFE-THREATENING diseases to animals and humans
risk group 4
what risk group ang significant risk to laboratory workers?
risk group 4
what risk group causes high individual risk and high community risk
risk group 4
how many levels of laboratory biosafety?
4 levels
what bsl: suitable for work involving viable microorganisms that are defined and with well-characterized strains know not cause disease in humans
bsl 1
what bsl is the most appropriate for undergraduate and secondary educ. training and teaching laboratories that require basic laboratory practices, safety equipment, and facility design that require basic level of containment?
bsl 1
what bsl man ka maka-handle og bacillus subtilis, naegleria gruberi, infectious canine hepatitis virus, and exempt organisms under the NIH Guidelines?
bsl 1
what bsl is designed for laboratories that deal with indigenous moderate-risk agents present in the community?
bsl 2
What BSL observes practices, equipment, and facility design that is applicable to clinical, diagnostic, and teaching laboratories, consequently observing good microbiological techniques
bsl 2
what bsl can handle microorganisms like hepatitis b virus, HIV, salmonellae, and toxoplasma species
bsl 2
what bsl puts emphasis on primary and secondary barriers in the protection of the personnel, the community, and the environment from infectious aerosol exposure.
bsl 3
what bsl works with indigenous exotic agents with a potential for respiratory transmission, and that may cause serious an dpotentially lethal infections?
bsl 3
what BSL can you handle for mycobacterium tuberculosis, st. Louis encephalitis virus and Coxiella
bsl 3
what bsl: all laboratory practices are required to be performed in a biosafety cabinet or other containment equipment like a gas-tight aerosol generation chamber?
BSL 3
what bsl is required for work with dangerous and exotic agents that pose high individual risks of life-threatening diseases that may be transmitted bio aerosol route, for which there are no available vaccines or treatment?
bsl 4
what bsl can you handle marburg virus. Crimean-congo hemorrhagic fever and many other agents known to pose a high risk of exposure and infection to laboratory personnel, community, and environment
bsl 4
what bsl ang generally in a separate building or completely isolated zone with specialized ventilation requirements and waste management systems
bsl 4
refers to anything in the environment that has the potential to cause harm
hazard
the possibility that something bad or unpleasant will happen
risk
enumerate the steps in performing risk assesment:
- define the situation
- define the risk
- characterize the risk
- determine if the risks are acceptable or not
what step in risk assessment - the risk assessment team must identify the hazards and risks of the biological agents to be handled
define the situation
what step in risk assessment: must include a review of how individuals inside and outside the laboratory may be exposed to the hazards
define the risks
what step in risk assessment: the risk assessment team needs to compare the likelihood and the consequences of infection either qualitatively or quantitatively.
characterize the risks
what step in risk assessment: takes into account the adequacy of any existing controls and deciding whether or not the risk is acceptable
determine if the risk is acceptable or not
it is what you call the risk associated with biological materials
biorisk
________ + ________ = biorisk
biosafety concern, biosecurity concern
it is a system or process to control safety and security risks associated with the handling or storage and disposal of biological agents and toxins in LABORATORIES and facilities
laboratory biorisk management
meaning of AMP model?
A - Assessment
M - Mitigation
P - Performance
it is the PROCESS of identifying the hazards and evaluating the RISKS associated with BIOLOGICAL agents and toxins and deciding whether or not the risks are acceptable
biorisk assessment
objects that causes harm
hazard
human that has intent to cause harm
threat
ACTION and CONTROL MEASURES that are put into place to reduce or eliminate the risks associated with BIOlogical agents and toxins
biorisk mitigation
improving biorisk management by recoding, measuring and evaluating organizational actions and outcomes to reduce biorisk
Biorisk performance
definition of risk assessment
- an analytical procdure
- must consider every activity
- asset, adversary, and vulnerability
- identifies the specific hazard or threat
- determine the consequence of an identical risk
what are the 5ps in the factors that affect likelihood and consequences?
pathogen
procedure
personel
ppe
place
what are the agent properties (pvteh)
P - Pathogenicity
V - Virulences
T - transmission
E - Environment stability
H - Host Range communicability
it is the process of gathering information about biological agents
asset
biologican adent and toxins are referred to as “assets”
adversary
determining the likelihood should involve assesing the following: (apd)
- acquiring the agent
- processing the agent
- dissemination the agent to cause harm
enumerate the things that may pose a threat to an asset: (mmo)
means
motive
opportunity
hiearchy of controls
- elimination
- substitution
- engineering
- administrative control
- personal protective equipment
