Key Questions about safety
Would any of your Project ideas raise safety issues in terms of researcher safety, public safety or environmental safety?
As model organism, we are going to use Escherichia coli, Salmonella tiphymurium and Pseudomonas putida. These bacteria are not pathogenic for humans at all, and can be used safely in any laboratory.
Our foundational advances project can be used to engineer bacteria that will be released to the environment. To follow the European guidelines, we developed a method to take out the antibiotic resistance that we use as a selection marker.
Do any of the new BioBrick parts (or devices) that you made this year raise any safety issues?
None of the biobricks we have made this year contains toxic or dangerous substances.
Is there a local biosafety group, committee or review board at your institution?
No, so we follow the usual measures in the Microbiology department.
