Category A Diseases/Agents
can be easily disseminated or transmitted from person to person;
result in high mortality rates and have the potential for major public health impact;
might cause public panic and social disruption; and
require special action for public health preparedness.

Category B Diseases/Agents
Second highest priority agents include those that
are moderately easy to disseminate; result in moderate morbidity rates and
low mortality rates; and require specific enhancements of CDC's
diagnostic capacity and enhanced disease surveillance.

Category C Diseases/Agents
Third highest priority agents include emerging pathogens that could be engineered for mass dissemination in the future because of
availability; ease of production and dissemination; and potential for high morbidity and mortality
rates and major health impact.

Containment Primary containment, the protection of
personnel and the immediate laboratory environment from exposure to infectious agents, is provided by both good microbiological technique and the use of appropriate safety equipment.
Secondary containment, the protection of the environment external to the laboratory from exposure to infectious materials,

Laboratory Practice and Technique
Develop or adopt a biosafety or operations manual that identifies the hazards that will or may be encountered, and that specifies practices and procedures designed to minimize or eliminate exposures to these hazards.
![Page 17: Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories S. Wongratanacheewin, Ph.D. Melioidosis Research Center, Faculty of Medicine, KKU. E-mail: sura_wng@kku.ac.th](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103015/55189bed550346a61f8b4674/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Principles of Biosafety
Laboratory personnel Safety practices, and
techniques must be supplemented
Appropriate facility design and engineering features
Safety equipment, and management practices.

Safety Equipment (Primary Barriers)
Biological safety cabinets (BSCs) Enclosed containers, Engineering controls designed to remove
or minimize exposures to hazardous biological materials.
![Page 19: Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories S. Wongratanacheewin, Ph.D. Melioidosis Research Center, Faculty of Medicine, KKU. E-mail: sura_wng@kku.ac.th](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103015/55189bed550346a61f8b4674/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The biological safety cabinet (BSC)
Device used to provide containment of infectious splashes or aerosols.
Three types of biological safety cabinets (Class I, II, III) used in microbiological laboratories.
Open-fronted Class I and Class II biological safety cabinets are primary barriers which offer significant levels of protection to laboratory personnel.
Safety centrifuge cup, an enclosed container designed to prevent aerosols.

Personal Protection
gloves, coats, gowns, shoe covers, boots, respirators, face shields, safety glasses, or goggles.

Facility Design and Construction (Secondary Barriers)
Depend on the risk of transmission of specific agents.
Separation of the laboratory work area from public access, availability of a decontamination facility (e.g., autoclave), and handwashing facilities.
If an infectious aerosol is present, higher levels of primary containment and multiple secondary barriers may become necessary to prevent infectious agents from escaping into the environment.

Use of Equipment
Minimize airflow disturbances (moving in/out of cabinet, people walking by, opening doors, blocking grilles with equipment)
Wipe down surfaces with alcohol before and after work. Let run 10 minutes to clean it
Minimize use of flames in cabinet Try not to use chemicals in cabinets- only
use in Class I or II hoods that are ducted- contact DOHS
Do not store excess equipment in cabinet
