c. Yes. Our BioBrick parts (or devices) might raise the resistance of Escherichia coli to certain antibiotics. As we are not conducting large-scale proliferation of microorganisms, the leakage of the bacteria cultured for testing experiments would not have significant impact on the general safety of the environment. However, we strictly follow the BSL-1 requirements as mentioned above and avoid any release of the BioBrick parts (or devices) or microorganisms to the environment. | c. Yes.

- | d. | + | d. No. Any malicious misuse of BioBrick parts (or devices) or microorganisms might have great threat to security. To avoid these potential hazards, we have carefully handled our experiments, stored our materials and products. Human error and poor technique can compromise the best of safeguards to protect the researcher and cause unpredicted risks to both human and environment. For this reason, we have conducted a continuous training in safety measures for all 2011 XMU-China team members and other laboratory workers in our lab. |
