Lesson 6 (Biosafety and Biosecurity) Flashcards
What do you call the pathogens that are commonly acquired
Laboratory Acquired Infections (LAI)
Protecting people from dangerous pathogens
Biosafety
Protecting pathogens from dangerous people
Biosecurity
When and where did the history of laboratory biosafety took place
North America and West Europe (1943)
The first person who created the Biological Development/ Biological Weapons Program
Franklin Roosevelt
When did he create the Biological Weapon Program
during cold war
(blank) focused only on the biological usage or microorganism that are against the (blank)
Biological Program; Soviet Union
The first scientific director in 1943 of Camp Detrick
Ira L. Baldwin
The center of the US Biological Program and also the designated installation for Biological Research and Development
Camp Detrick
new name for Camp Detrick
Fort Detrick
Designed multiplications for Biosafety at Camp Detrick
Newell Johnson
The meetings of Johnson eventually lead to (blank)
The American Biological Safety Association (ABSA)
He terminated the Biological Program that created by Roosevelt + (what year)
Richard Nixon in 1969
First person who invented the Mechanical Pipettor
Arnold Wedum
Another invention of Arnold Wedum
Ventilation Cabinet to prevent infection against MTB or Macrobacterium Tuberculosis
Defined as any biological or chemical substance that is dangerous to
human, animals or the environment
Biohazard
Examples of biohazard
body fluids, human tissue and blood, and recombinant DNA
Used universally to report Harmful substances that are particularly
dangerous for living beings
Biohazard symbol
Who created the Biohazard symbol (year)
Charles Baldwin (1966)
Agents that are not associated with disease in healthy adult
humans. The low individual and community risk.
RG 1
Agents that are associated with human disease which is
rarely serious and for which preventive or therapeutic inventions are
often available. Moderate individual and low community risk.
RG 2
Agents that are associated with serious or lethal human
disease for which preventive or therapeutic or interventions may be
available. High individual risk but low community risk.
RG 3
Agents that are likely to cause serios or lethal human disease
for which preventive or therapeutic inventions are not usually
available. High individual risk and high transmissible to an
individual.
RG 4
Suitable for work involving variable microorganism that are defined
and well characterized strains known not to cause disease in human; appropriate among undergraduate and secondary educational
training and teaching laboratories that require basic lab safety
practices; no containment needed
