Laboratory Safety: Handbook (Tuberculosis)

This guide has been developed to help reduce the risk of infection or injury, and protect the laboratory workforce and the wider community against unintentional exposures or releases of pathogenic biological agents. This handbook provides practical information and clear illustrations to assist laboratory staff in understanding the important safety issues related to the processing and management of samples potentially containing Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
The Laboratory Safety handbook is a practical guide for laboratory staff; it draws on decades of experience working in culture and DST laboratories, and references best practice documents released by WHO, the Global Laboratory Initiative, and The Union. The Handbook uses simple text and clear illustrations to assist laboratory staff in understanding the important safety issues involved in performing culture and DST. The TB Laboratory Safety handbook should be used with the Tuberculosis laboratory biosafety manual.
