Guidelines for Biosafety in Teaching Laboratories Version 2.0: A Revised and Updated Manual for 2019
The original Guidelines for Biosafety in Teaching Laboratories were developed in 2012 in response to an outbreak of Salmonella Typhimurium tracked by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that originated from clinical and teaching microbiology laboratories. In the 7 years since the pu...
