Lab Safety: Biosafety

At Ryerson University, safety means that lab personnel are protected from exposures to infectious agents. In this video, you'll gain an understanding of the different containment levels (established by the Public Health Agency of Canada), and about the specific containment levels used in the University’s laboratory. The video will also cover how to safely handle infectious materials when entering and exiting labs, the safe operation of biosafety cabinets to prevent infectious aerosols, and prevention methods for sharps and needle injuries. The last component addresses effective work practices for cleaning up spills with spill kits.
