IBC Biosafety Manuals (sample outlines)
It is a requirement that a biosafety manual be prepared when an
activity involves infectious and/or recombinant DNA materials. This
biosafety manual should be prepared to assist investigators, technicians,
and collaborators in routine and/or emergency operation using rDNA
or infectious materials. The Biosafety Manual should also be available
to safety, and emergency response personnel in case of an incident,
accident, or an emergency in a specific lab area. It should be a
working document, reviewed periodically, updated
as necessary, and readily accessible to all personnel working in
a lab or area with infectious and/or recombinant agents.
A training / familiarization sheet for all personnel working in
a lab or area with infectious and/or recombinant agents should be
part of the Biosafety Manual.
A loose-leaf binder that can easily accommodate new materials
is an effective option for maintaining a laboratory Biosafety Manual.
You may find it helpful to use these bullet points as section or
chapter headings.
