This is a template page. READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
You are provided with this team page template with which to start the iGEM season. You may choose to personalize it to fit your team but keep the same "look." Or you may choose to take your team wiki to a different level and design your own wiki. You can find some examples HERE.
You MUST have a team description page, a project abstract, a complete project description, a lab notebook, and a safety page. PLEASE keep all of your pages within your teams namespace.



You can write a background of your team here. Give us a background of your team, the members, etc. Or tell us more about something of your choosing.

safety

To address potential safety issues with our project, we were asked by iGEM to answer the following questions:

  1. Would any of your project ideas raise safety issues in terms of:
    • researcher safety,
    • public safety, or
    • environmental safety?

    In consideration of researcher and public safety, all experiments were done in Biosafety Level 1 (BSL 1) facilities. For researcher safety; each person passed a Unam Safety Orientation. Any equipment of iNitroalgae used in extra attention to block spread of genetically modified algaes into environment. To overcome this problem, we will make a characterization about competition between modified and wild type algaes.



  2. Do any of the new BioBrick parts (or devices) that you made this year raise any safety issues? If yes,
    • did you document these issues in the Registry?
    • how did you manage to handle the safety issue?
    • How could other teams learn from your experience?

    Groups which will use our parts should be consider resistance of transgenic algae. None of our parts raise any safety issues. In iNitroalgae Project, Clamydomonas reinhardtii experiments were done indoor of a BSL1 laboratory setting. Working with algae could be include transgenic plant policy to care about but we are not sure.

  3. Is there a local biosafety group, committee, or review board at your institution?
    • If yes, what does your local biosafety group think about your project?
    • If no, which specific biosafety rules or guidelines do you have to consider in your country?

    4. The National Nanotechnology Research Center (UNAM) has a guidelines primarily focused on prpoerly disposing of biohazardous materials. We don’t require to contact to these group since, our project has usual techniques which is standard for cloning. All team members obey the rules during researches.


  4. Do you have any other ideas how to deal with safety issues that could be useful for future iGEM competitions? How could parts, devices and systems be made even safer through biosafety engineering?

    5. The Registry of Standard Biological Parts include a set of safety process (e.g., proper storage, disposal, lab precautions, and so on.), when they got this parts they accept to take care about those cautions. Simple precautions could save really complicated harmful exposure. All team member should be informed about those safety regulations.
