Abstract:

With the promulgation and implementation of the Biosafety Law of the People's Republic of China, biosafety management of the pathogenic microbiology laboratories has been ranked to an unprecedented level. Practice of standardized training for biosafety can effectively improve the awareness and operational skills of the staff towards the biosafety in laboratory settings, and prevent the occurrence of biosafety accidents. In order to understand the needs and keys to biosafety training in the laboratory associated with parasitic pathogens, we adhere to the necessity to carry out training on the biosafety risk assessment in parasite pathogenic laboratories on the basis of questionnaires, interviews and other investigations, and preliminarily created a standardized training program for evaluation of the biosafety risks in pathogenic microbiology laboratories. The training profile includes training purposes, intended audiences, training contents, methods of training and evaluation on the training effects, which can provide reference for conducting standardized training on the biosafety risk assessment in laboratories associated with parasitic pathogens.
