| dry ice safety training: Biological Safety Dawn P. Wooley, Karen B. Byers, 2020-07-02 Biological safety and biosecurity protocols are essential to the reputation and responsibility of every scientific institution, whether research, academic, or production. Every risk—no matter how small—must be considered, assessed, and properly mitigated. If the science isn't safe, it isn't good. Now in its fifth edition, Biological safety: Principles and Practices remains the most comprehensive biosafety reference. Led by editors Karen Byers and Dawn Wooley, a team of expert contributors have outlined the technical nuts and bolts of biosafety and biosecurity within these pages. This book presents the guiding principles of laboratory safety, including: the identification, assessment, and control of the broad variety of risks encountered in the lab; the production facility; and, the classroom. Specifically, Biological Safety covers protection and control elements—from biosafety level cabinets and personal protection systems to strategies and decontamination methods administrative concerns in biorisk management, including regulations, guidelines, and compliance various aspects of risk assessment covering bacterial pathogens, viral agents, mycotic agents, protozoa and helminths, gene transfer vectors, zooonotic agents, allergens, toxins, and molecular agents as well as decontamination, aerobiology, occupational medicine, and training A resource for biosafety professionals, instructors, and those who work with pathogenic agents in any capacity, Biological safety is also a critical reference for laboratory managers, and those responsible for managing biohazards in a range of settings, including basic and agricultural research, clinical laboratories, the vivarium, field study, insectories, and greenhouses. |

| dry ice safety training: Cleanrooms Michael Kozicki, 2012-12-06 In writing this book, our goal was to produce a much needed teaching and reference text with a fresh approach to c1eanroom technology. The most obvious technological reason for bringing this book into being is that c1ean rooms have become vital to the manufacture and development of high technology products in both the commercial and military sectors, and there fore people have to develop an understanding of them. Examples of c1ean room applications include the manufacture of integrated circuits and other electronic components, preciSion mechanical assemblies, computer disks and drives, compact disks, optical components, medical implants and prostheses, pharmaceuticals and biochemicals, and so on. The book is written for anyone who is currently involved, or intends to become involved, with c1eanrooms. We intend it to be used by a wide range of professional groups including process engineers, production engineers, plant mechanical and electrical engineers, research engineers and scientists, managers, and so on. In addition, we believe it will be beneficial to those who design, build, service, and supply c1eanrooms, and may be used as a training aid for students who intend to pursue a career involving controlled environments and others such as c1eanroom operators and maintenance staff. We have attempted to steer clear of complex theory, which may be pursued in many other specialist texts, and keep the book as understandable and applicable as possible. |
| dry ice safety training: Innovative and Efficient Laboratory Management Godswill Ntsomboh Ntsefong, 2015-04-29 Since most research activities involve laboratory work, there is need for efficient management of laboratory or test facilities to ensure quality-controlled research and cost-effective use of resources. It is obvious that good laboratory and research management skills are necessary for scientists and scholars involved directly or indirectly in industrial, clinical, or bioscience research and/or charged with management of laboratory facilities. The essence of this write-up is therefore to enhance good laboratory management practices that ensure stressless compliance with legal and regulatory frameworks for health and safety. The aim is to promote scientific excellence by highlighting the conditions and skills necessary for efficient and innovative management of laboratory facilities while enhancing consciousness and efficacy in cost-effective research management. The issues addressed in the book include a proposal of the administrative setup of a laboratory or test facility, laboratory design considerations, which obviously have a significant impact on the quality of results generated. The principles of good laboratory practices and the importance of biosafety and biosecurity are specially addressed. The author also reiterates the importance of a procurement strategy for each laboratory or test facility, whose aim should be to set out a planned approach for cost-effective purchasing of required goods and services, taking into account several factors such as the timeline for procurement, the funding and budget and the projected risks and opportunities. Here, the need for a defined and documented policy and procedures for selection and use of purchased external goods and services in addition to an inventory control system for laboratory supplies is highlighted. Laboratory operators need to have an overview of different categories and types of laboratory equipment at their disposal with good knowledge of their safe handling, operation, and maintenance following well-set schedules. Besides this concern, the book also dwells on laboratory information management system (LIMS), which is an important and integral part of laboratory operations relevant for efficient laboratory management. A whole chapter is consecrated to quality control (QC), quality assurance (QA) and total quality management (TQM) as the three major elements of quality, which effectively sets the stage for laboratory accreditation, which demonstrates legitimacy and credibility of research results. In fact, laboratory accreditation is the process by which an independent and authorized agency certifies the quality system and competence of a laboratory on the basis of certain predefined standards. It is the formal recognition, authorization, and registration of a laboratory that has demonstrated its capability, competence and credibility to carry out the tasks it is claiming to be able to do. In this book, the reader will discover the whole process of laboratory accreditation with the various agencies involved as well as the benefits of laboratory accreditation. The book closes up with ethical issues in research management. It is obvious that the consideration of ethics in research should enhance mature decision-making in harmony with changing technology. The chapter on this issue points out the fact that efficient research and laboratory management must be based on ethical principles that guarantee all stakeholders access to the benefits of new technologies with increased understanding of biological systems and responsible use of technology. Some basic guidelines are given at the end on how to implement knowledge gained from the book to efficiently run a modern laboratory or research facility. |

It covers biobanking issues and its importance in advancing the field of research in cancer, cardiovascular, metabolic, and other diseases. Biobanks of human specimens have become the cornerstone for research on human health that harnesses the power of “omics” technologies to identify biomarkers for disease susceptibility. Biobanks are an essential component of the development of personalized medicine, which relies on the molecular analysis of biospecimens that are truly representative of individuals and of diseases. Over the past decade, biobanking has been the focus of major investments and developments aimed at developing appropriate infrastructure, methods, networking practice and evidence-based pre-analytical procedures. This volume explores topics including specimen storage, protocol design, specimen collection, pre-analytical processing and preservation, long-term storage, retrieval and separation, and distribution to analytical laboratory platforms. These activities are extremely complex and are essential for biomedical and biotechnological developments and this text provides critical information about biobanking for the development of future forms of medicine. |

| dry ice safety training: Cell Cycle Checkpoint Control Protocols Howard B. Lieberman, 2008-02-02 The field of cell cycle regulation is based on the observation that the life cycle of a cell progresses through several distinct phases, G1, M, S, and G2, occurring in a well-defined temporal order. Details of the mechanisms involved are rapidly emerging and appear extraordinarily complex. Furthermore, not only is the order of the phases important, but in normal eukaryotic cells one phase will not begin unless the prior phase is completed successfully. Che- point control mechanisms are essentially surveillance systems that monitor the events in each phase, and assure that the cell does not progress prematurely to the next phase. If conditions are such that the cell is not ready to progress—for example, because of incomplete DNA replication in S or DNA damage that may interfere with chromosome segregation in M—a transient delay in cell cycle progression will occur. Once the inducing event is properly handled— for example, DNA replication is no longer blocked or damaged DNA is repaired—cell cycle progression continues. Checkpoint controls have recently been the focus of intense study by investigators interested in mechanisms that regulate the cell cycle. Furthermore, the relationship between checkpoint c- trol and carcinogenesis has additionally enhanced interest in these cell cycle regulatory pathways. It is clear that cancer cells often lack these checkpoints and exhibit genomic instability as a result. Moreover, several tumor suppressor genes participate in checkpoint control, and alterations in these genes are as- ciated with genomic instability as well as the development of cancer. |

| dry ice safety training: The Cognitive Thalamus Yuri B. Saalmann, Sabine Kastner, 2015-06-17 Cognitive processing is commonly conceptualized as being restricted to the cerebral cortex. Accordingly, electrophysiology, neuroimaging and lesion studies involving human and animal subjects have almost exclusively focused on defining roles for cerebral cortical areas in cognition. Roles for the thalamus in cognition have been largely ignored despite the fact that the extensive connectivity between the thalamus and cerebral cortex gives rise to a closely coupled thalamo-cortical system. However, in recent years, growing interest in the thalamus as much more than a passive sensory structure, as well as methodological advances such as high-resolution functional magnetic resonance imaging of the thalamus and improved electrode targeting to subregions of thalamic nuclei using electrical stimulation and diffusion tensor imaging, have fostered research into thalamic contributions to cognition. Evidence suggests that behavioral context modulates processing in primary sensory, or first-order, thalamic nuclei (for example, the lateral geniculate and ventral posterior nuclei), allowing attentional filtering of incoming sensory information at an early stage of brain processing. Behavioral context appears to more strongly influence higher-order thalamic nuclei (for example, the pulvinar and mediodorsal nucleus), which receive major input from the cortex rather than the sensory periphery. Such higher-order thalamic nuclei have been shown to regulate information transmission in frontal and higher-order sensory cortex according to cognitive demands. This Research Topic aims to bring together neuroscientists who study different parts of the thalamus, particularly thalamic nuclei other than the primary sensory relays, and highlight the thalamic contributions to attention, memory, reward processing, decision-making, and language. By doing so, an emphasis is also placed on neural mechanisms common to many, if not all, of these cognitive operations, such as thalamo-cortical interactions and modulatory influences from sources in the brainstem and basal ganglia. The overall view that emerges is that the thalamus is a vital node in brain networks supporting cognition. |
