<p>On this page of your wiki, you should write about how you are addressing any safety issues in your project. The wiki is a place where you can <strong>go beyond the questions on the safety forms</strong>, and write about whatever safety topics are most interesting in your project. (You do not need to copy your safety forms onto this wiki page.)</p>

Hello! Thank you for visiting our website. This page is currently being developed, but check back for updates!

Introduction to Importance of Safety use iGEM stuff In Lab Safety EH&S Standards use 2015 desc UCSC iGEM Standards Lab Safety Course buddy system personal protection equipment inside lab uphold EH&S standards Project Safety Organisms (Biosafety All level 1 or less) Yarrowia lipolytica (Candida lipolytica) - strain W29 (Level 1) (exists naturally in the mouth and gut, can lead to infections in immunocompromised people (rare). GRAS organism) 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase - (reduces Ergosterol to Ergosta 5-eneol and/or Ergosta 5,22-dieneol) adrenodoxin-NADP+ reductase (ADR) -one of the electron carriers needed to allow P450scc to function ferredoxin-1 (FDX1) - the second electron carrier needed to allow P450scc to function side-chain cleavage cytochrome (P450scc) - converts Ergostra 5-eneol and Ergostra 5,22-dieneol to pregnenolone 3beta-hydroxy-Delta5-steroid dehydrogenase/steroid - catalyzes the conversion of pregnenolone to progesterone Additional Safety Resources CDC NIH ABSA
