Laboratory Safety and Environment Issues at NYSBC

Human/ animal samples

Human and animal derived samples may be contaminated by accident or design with infectious or toxic agents.

Infectious / toxic agents

1. Wear safety glasses, gloves, and disposable lab coat.
2. Any procedure with the potential to generate aerosols should be written out and reviewed with lab safety staff for conformance
3. ALL SAMPLES must be returned to the user and then removed from NYSBC, or alternately be put in the Medical Waste stream for disposal.
4. Any sample storage must conform to a written procedure, and will normally require seperate storage resources SOLELY for human and animal specimens.

Recombinant issues

Aug 5 2005, Biological Inventory

For this purpose, all NYSBC labs and facilities, and all affiliate use must be consisent with,

1. must certify that there are no CDC select agents at NYSBC or reagents derived from them.
2. must certify that all recombinant DNA projects fall within the NIH Guildlines expemption. See http://www4.od.nih.gov/oba/guidelines.html
3. must certify that there is compliance with the OSHA Blood borne pathogen standard.
4. must advise NYSBC on the use of any organism for recombinant activity other than non-pathogenic strains of E. coli

As a generic rule, we assume that all NYSBC labs/facilities, and affiliate users will be using non-pathogenic strains of E. coli for protein preparation purposes, that the organism is stored in the general wet labs, and that the scientific director of each NYSBC lab/facility and each affiliate PI is the responsible PI.

Additional Requirements on Affiliates

All hours access.

Material Handling Sheets in A22 and in each wet lab specifically.

Electronic copies at MaterialDataSheet

Disposal procedures

Note that we are exempt from EPA supervision on the basis of less that 225 lb / period production of hazardous chemicals. Anyone contemplating need for use or disposal of larger quantities MUST GET EXECUTIVE PERMISSION. Note that the period is probably 90 days.

Disposal vendors

1. CCNY currently a customer, or 2 or more Member Institutions customers
2. Specific quote on hand for disposal
3. EPA approval confirmed by NYSBC staff at http://www.epa.gov/opptintr/pcb/stordisp.html
4. SPECIFIC APPROVAL BY EXECUTIVE

Laboratory Safety and Environment Issues at NYSBC

Human/ animal samples

Infectious / toxic agents

1. Wear safety glasses, gloves, and disposable lab coat.
2. Any procedure with the potential to generate aerosols should be written out and reviewed with lab safety staff for conformance
3. ALL SAMPLES must be returned to the user and then removed from NYSBC, or alternately be put in the Medical Waste stream for disposal.
4. Any sample storage must conform to a written procedure, and will normally require seperate storage resources SOLELY for human and animal specimens.

Aug 5 2005, Biological Inventory

For this purpose, all NYSBC labs and facilities, and all affiliate use must be consisent with,

1. must certifythat there are no CDC select agents at NYSBC or reagents derived from them.
2. must certify that all recombinant DNA projects fall within the NIH Guildlines expemption. See http://www4.od.nih.gov/oba/guidelines.html
3. must certify that there is compliance with the OSHA Blood borne pathogen standard.
4. must advise NYSBC on the use of any organism for recombinant activity other than non-pathogenic strains of E. coli

As a generic rule, we assume that all NYSBC labs/facilities, and affiliate users will be using non-pathogenic strains of E. coli for protein preparation purposes, that the organism is stored in the general wet labs, and that the scientific director of each NYSBC lab/facility and each affiliate PI is the responsible PI.

Additional Requirements on Affiliates

All hours access.

Disposal procedures

Disposal vendors

1. CCNY currently a customer, or 2 or more Member Institutions customers
2. Specific quote on hand for disposal
3. EPA approval confirmed by NYSBC staff at http://www.epa.gov/opptintr/pcb/stordisp.html
4. SPECIFIC APPROVAL BY EXECUTIVE

Related Documents , copies in A22 or A26.

Disposal procedures

Note that we are exempt from EPA supervision on the basis of less that 225 lb / period production of hazardous chemicals. Anyone contemplating need for use or disposal of larger quantities MUST GET EXECUTIVE PERMISSION. Npte that the period is probably 90 days.

Hood procedures

1. Every experiment with hazard must have a dump procedure in which the hazardous material can be immediately rendered harmless.
   1. For example, for strong acids, a bucket of sodium bicarbonate should be on hand in the hood
   2. For strong bases, a 5% acetic acid solution should be on hand in the hood
   3. for toxic biologicals in reasonably small amounts, a beaker of bleach should be available in the hood
   4. for thiols, bleach can also be used.
2. For every chemical of significant hazard (volatility, flamability) the item must be stored inside its original container (or similar) and additionally protected by an outside dessicator or similar sealed container.
3. Hoods CANNOT be used when there is a power failure.
