Biosafety: prevention of large-scale loss of biological integrity, focusing both on ecology and human health.
The international Biosafety Protocol deals primarily with the agricultural definition but many advocacy groups seek to expand it to include post-genetic threats: new molecules, artificial life forms, and even robots which may compete directly in the natural food chain.
Biosafety in agriculture, chemistry, medicine, exobiology and beyond will likely require application of the precautionary principle, and a new definition focused on the biological nature of the threatened organism rather than the nature of the threat.

When was European BioSafety Association created?
European BioSafety Association was created in 1996.
What is the difference between biosecurity and biosafety?
biosecurity is limiting people's access to the agent. biosafety is limiting the agent's access to people.

What is biosafety all about?
Biosafety is all about maintaining integrity within the environment and those living within it. It seeks to limit the impact of biological waste and materials within an area.
What are the differences between biosafety level 1 and biosafety level 2 facilities in terms of their containment measures and safety protocols?
Biosafety level 1 facilities are basic labs that handle low-risk agents, with minimal containment measures and safety protocols. Biosafety level 2 facilities handle moderate-risk agents and have stricter containment measures, such as limited access and protective equipment, to prevent contamination and ensure safety.

Who discovered biosafety cabinet?
In 1975, Charlie Biosafety had an epiphany whilst walking in the Sahara desert. A vision of the cabinet hidden miles underground encouraged him to dig with his own hands, until under all that sand he finally discovered the cabinet. Being rather egotistical, he decided to name it after himself. From that day forth, it was known as the Biosafety cabinet.
Which union ministery implements cartagena protocol on biosafety?
Ministry of Environment and Forests
What level pathogen is anthrax?
Bacillus anthracis requires a Biosafety Level 3 laboratory.
Which biosafety levels require placement of biohazard sign on the door?
Biosafety levels 2, 3, and 4 require the placement of a biohazard sign on the door of the laboratory. This signage is essential to inform personnel and visitors about the potential risks associated with the pathogens handled within these facilities. The sign typically indicates the specific biosafety level and outlines necessary precautions. Level 1 labs do not require such signage as they deal with minimal risk agents.
