  4. Topics to be covered • Presentation title SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  5. Microorganisms Topics: SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  6. Transmission SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  7. Standard precautions SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  8. Biological safety cabinets Biological safety cabinets (BSC) are used when working with specimens containing micro-organisms transmissible by the respiratory route or when work produces a significant risk from aerosol production. * Bunsen burners should not be used in Class II cabinets as they disrupt the laminar flow and the barrier air. * Laminar flow benches must never be used when handling pathogenic materials as any aerosols formed will be directed at the user.

  11. Microorganisms Risk Group categories SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  12. Microorganisms Human and animal clinical and diagnostic specimens would normally be regarded as Risk Group 2 and shall be handled in PC2 facilities unless a higher risk group is indicated by the clinical notes. SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  18. What is not a GMO? (reproduced and modified with permission from Curtin University Health and Safety) SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  19. GMO Regulation SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  20. Object of the GT Act (2000) SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  21. Role of the Office of the Gene Technology Regulator (OGTR) SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  22. What is a GMO ‘dealing’? SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  23. Types of ‘Dealings’ SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  24. Regulating GMO dealings SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  25. Schedules SCIENCE | TECHNOLOGY | INNOVATION

  26. Physical Containment (PC) facilities The OGTR has adopted the four-tier classification system based on AS/NZS 2243.3 for certifying facilities suitable for GMO dealings

  27. Physical Containment (PC) facilities • Dealings must be conducted in a facility certified by the OGTR at a level appropriate to the potential risk posed by the dealing. • NB: PC4 is not applicable in the Swinburne context.
