To some degree, synthetic biology research will raise safety issues since the experiments involving toxic substance. However, we have effective protective measures in our laboratory. Moreover, the field we studied is belong to the food industry. There would be no poisonous or harmful substances produced. With proper measures and safety awareness kept in mind, the risk would be minimum during the experiments.

No. Our new biobrick parts (or devices) all come from the microorganisms which have been used in food industry for over years. And we will utilize the parts (or devices) in the food industry as well. Thus, we have to make sure the new biobricks cannot raise any safety issues.

Yes. Our project is well known by the School of Food Science and Engineering and Harbin Institute of Technology. And our instructors will supervise our work during the whole projects.

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.

Tell us more about your project. Give us background. Use this is the abstract of your project. Be descriptive but concise (1-2 paragraphs)

Please use this page to answer the safety questions posed on the safety page.

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

To some degree, synthetic biology research will raise safety issues since the experiments involving toxic substance. However, we have effective protective measures in our laboratory. Moreover, the field we studied is belong to the food industry. There would be no poisonous or harmful substances produced. With proper measures and safety awareness kept in mind, the risk would be minimum during the experiments.

2.Do any of the new BioBrick parts (or devices) that you made this year raise any safety issues?

No. Our new biobrick parts (or devices) all come from the microorganisms which have been used in food industry for over years. And we will utilize the parts (or devices) in the food industry as well. Thus, we have to make sure the new biobricks cannot raise any safety issues.

3.Is there a local biosafety group, committee, or review board at your institution?

Yes. Our project is well known by the School of Food Science and Engineering and Harbin Institute of Technology. And our instructors will supervise our work during the whole projects.
