Biosafety level 1 virus list

  • What are level 2 viruses?

    Biosafety Level 2 (BSL2) practices, equipment, and facility design are applicable to clinical, diagnostic, teaching, and other laboratories in which work is done with moderate-risk agents that are present in the community and associated with human.
    Hepatitis B virus, HIV, the salmonellae, and Toxoplasma spp..

  • What biosafety level is Ebola?

    Ebola virus (EBOV) is a highly contagious lethal pathogen.
    As a biosafety level 4 (BSL-4) agent, however, EBOV is restricted to costly BSL-4 laboratories for experimentation, thus significantly impeding the evaluation of EBOV vaccines and drugs..

  • What includes in the biosafety level 1?

    Biosafety Level 1 (BSL-1)
    BSL-1 labs are used to study infectious agents or toxins not known to consistently cause disease in healthy adults.
    They follow basic safety procedures, called Standard Microbiological Practices and require no special equipment or design features..

  • What is biosafety level1 requirement?

    A BSL-1 lab, which is not required to be isolated from surrounding facilities, houses activities that require only standard microbial practices, such as: Mechanical pipetting only (no mouth pipetting allowed) Safe sharps handling.
    Avoidance of splashes or aerosols..

  • Hazard group 1:
    Biological agent that is unlikely to cause human disease, e.g.
    Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae (baker's yeast).
Biohazard Level 1 usually includes viruses and bacteria like Escherichia coli and chickenpox and many non-infectious bacteria. The level of precaution at this level is minimal and usually involves wearing a face mask and no close contact.
BSL-1 risk group contains biological agents that pose low risk to personnel and the environment. These agents are highly unlikely to cause disease in healthy 
The agents require Biosafety Level 1 containment. Examples of BSL-1 organisms are: Agrobacterium radiobacter, Aspergillus niger, Bacillus thuringiensis, Escherichia coli strain K12, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Micrococcus leuteus, Neurospora crassa, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Serratia marcescens.

What is Biosafety Level 1 bacteriophage?

Biosafety level 1 (BSL-1) controls microorganisms unusually known to cause disease with "minimal hazards" to the laboratory and the community.
A recent study involves the selection of a BSL-1 bacteriophage surrogate to assess the efficacy of a chlorine-based surface disinfectant for Ebola outbreaks.
