Definición

  • Biosafety includes developing and implementing standards of practice, facility design, and use of safety equipment to protect the workplace, the public, and the environment from known and potentially infectious biological agents—microbes, viruses, toxins, and living modified organisms. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), World Health Organization (WHO), United Nations Secretariat of the Convention on Biological Diversity, European Biosafety Society, and other organizations around the world work together to create biosafety standards, exchange information, make recommendations, and ensure regulatory control.
