MCQs on Biological Safety Level (BSL) and Use of Biological Safety Cabinets (BSCs) in a laboratory: Medical microbiology
MCQs on Biological Safety Level BSL (Biosafety Level): BSL is a system of classification that categorizes laboratories and procedures based on the level of containment and protection required when working with various biological agents. BSL levels range from 1 (lowest risk) to 4 (highest risk). BSC (Biological Safety Cabinet): BSCs are specialized laboratory equipment designed to provide containment and protection for individuals working with biological materials, primarily to prevent the release of hazardous agents into the environment and protect the operator. 1. What does BSL stand for in laboratory safety? a. Biosecurity Level b. Biosafety Laboratory Standard c. Biological Safety Level d. Biotechnology Safety Level 2. Which organization developed the Biosafety Levels (BSL) to classify and regulate the handling of hazardous biological materials in lab...
