<p>During one day as a lab worker, you may have to work in laboratories with different biosafety levels. There is a classification which takes into consideration the organism used, the equipment needed and the procedures you have to follow. Mainly, BSL-1 and BSL-2 are used for research and are allowed for iGEM. An important point is that rules are cumulative, it means that in BSL-2 you have to apply BSL-1 rules and BSL-2 rules. </p> | <p>During one day as a lab worker, you may have to work in laboratories with different biosafety levels.

<p>Working in a laboratory implies following many rules to ensure maximal safety, both for the workers and for the environment. To make the best out of our iGEM experience, we all followed a formation on Good Laboratory Practices at the beginning of the summer. Then, we made sure that each and every rule was followed properly. </p> | <p>Working in a laboratory implies following many rules to ensure maximal safety, both for the workers and for the environment.
