Safety
- Please use this page to answer the safety questions posed on the safety page.
- We are still planning in detail about the experiments. These proposals are not the final ones.
Safety of Project
Q1: Would any of your project ideas raise safety issues in terms of researcher safety, public safety, or environmental safety?
A1: Flies are dealt in the same experimental condition with the modified E.coli.
We will collaborate with the laboratory staff of the university in order to decrease the accidentally release of the flies to highlight other risk factors.
Safety Rules
Q2: 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? 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?
A2: We currently don't think they will raise any safety issues. And we obey the rules of Laboratory of Science Communication and Bioethics, which belongs to the Kyoto University Graduate School of Bioscience in charge of making all the biological researches carried out in our institution transparent to the public.
Ideas for the Future
Q3: 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?
A3: It is really tough to answer to this question..we'll continue discussing on this fundamental problem..
