Study Notes
Laboratory Practice
- BRM stands for Biorisk Management in the context of laboratory practice.
Waste Disposal
- Hospitals have their own specific disposal units for patient samples and waste products primarily to prevent environmental contamination and exposure to infectious agents.
Laboratory Risks
- Biological or infectious agents in laboratory settings pose a risk of infection and illness to laboratory personnel, as well as potential transmission to the environment and community.
AMP Model by WHO
- The AMP Model by WHO identifies three primary components of Biorisk Management: Assessment, Management, and Performance.
Biohazards in Laboratories
- Examples of biohazards that can be found in laboratories and facilities include infectious agents, such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites, as well as biological materials, such as human tissues, blood, and other bodily fluids.
