  1. Institutional Biosafety Committee and Biological Use Authorization

  2. Biological Use Authorization (BUA) Application • BSL 1, ABSL 1 and NIH-Exempt • Reviewed and approved by BSO • BSL 2 or 3, ABSL 2 or 3 and NIH- Non-exempt • Reviewed and approved by IBC Currently, no facilities at SDSU meet the minimum criteria for BSL 4; thus this type of work is prohibited.

  3. Submission of New BUA • New infectious agents • New cell lines • New vector system • Enhanced replication or infectivity • Expression of toxic products • Partial genomes increased to more than two-thirds of whole genome • New or altered procedures that pose increased risk (e.g., aerosol or other type of exposure) • Work with non-human systems being changed into work with human system

  4. SDSU Biosafety Approval Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC) • Protocol Review • Biological Use Authorization (BUA) with respect to containment level (biosafety level) • Training • Inspection

  5. Principal Investigator • Develops specific protocols to ensure the safe use of biohazardous materials. • Submits a BUA application and obtains approval from IBC prior to commencement of work. • Complies with specific biosafety protocols, practices and procedures described in the biohazard control manual. • Ensures that all laboratory staff are appropriately trained on biosafety. • Reports any significant problems, violations of the policies, practices and procedures, or any significant research-related accidents and/or laboratory acquired infection to the BSO immediately.

  6. Laboratory Staff • Comply with the specific biosafety protocols, practices and procedures described in the biohazard control manual. • Report to the PI or the lab manager all problems, spills or violations in procedure immediately.
