BIOSAFETY VS BIOSECURITY
microorganisms.
Laboratory BIOSAFETY
- protecting people from dangerous pathogens
- by wearing PPE to protect the health
personnel
Laboratory BIOSECURITY
- protecting pathogens from dangerous people
- inside lab, we are protecting microorganism
that could cause a life-threatening disease if
made contact by other normal people
- dangerous people will use pathogens
BRIEF HISTORY OF LABORATORY BIOSAFETY
FRANKLING ROOSEVELT
- Ordered biological weapon program.
- Biological weapons program was
activated during Cold War – A Period of
geopolitical tension between 2 (CDC) – found in the US
countries: Soviet Union and USA
IRA L. BALDWIN
- He became the first scientific director in
1943 at CAMP DETRICK – called the 4th
Detrick
- He established biological weapon
program to respond biological threats
CAMP DETRICK
- center for US biological weapon
program and established after World
War II at CAMP DETRICK.
NEWELL JOHNSON
- one who designed modification in
biosafety such as class III safety
cabinets and laminar flow hood
- American Biological Safety Association
(ABSA) – established in 1984 by
consequent meeting of them.
RICHARD NIXON
- Terminated the biological weapon
program in 1969
ARNOLD WEDUM
- one of the pioneers of biosafety that
provide the foundation of evaluating
the risk of handling infectious
- one who described the use of
Mechanical Pipettor to prevent
laboratory acquired infection in year
1907 and 1908.
- Ventilated Cabinet was first
documented outside of United State
Biological weapons program in 1909 in
Pharmaceutical Company found in
Pennsylvania to prevent infection from
macrobacterium tuberculosis
- During 1967, where a spike of mortality
and morbidity rate of small pack?
- WHO decided to consolidate the stock
of virus into (2) locations in CDC and
SRCVB Vector
 Center for Disease Control prevention
 State Research Center of Virology and
Biotechnology Vector (SRCVB Vector) –
Found in Russia
- 2 years later – N.I.H. or National
Institute of Health publish the N.I.H.
guidelines for research involving the
recombinant DNA Molecules.
- In 2008, CEN or Committee European
Normalization workshop agreement in
15793 mainly focuses for laboratory bio
risk management developed among
experts from 24 diff countries:
Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Canada,
China, Denmark, Germany, Gana, US
etc.
- In 2011, it was updated and intended to
maintain bio risk management system
among diverse organization and set out
performance-based requirements.
Agreement was used until it expires on
year 2004.
3RD EDITION OF LABORATORY SAFETY
MANUAL- - was published year 1983 by WHO or
Word Health Organization.
-Addresses concern on biosafety guideless for
research health laboratories.

THE CARTAGENA PROTOCOL on BIOSAFETY

- Was made effective in year 2003,

applies to 168 members of countries
- Provides international regulatory
framework to ensure an adequate level
of protection in the field of safe transfer
handling and the use of living modified
organism (LMO) resulting in modern bio
technology.

THE NATIONAL Committee on BIOSAFETY

FRAMEWORK FOR THE PHILIPPINES

- Ncbp Was established under executive

order number 430 series of 1990 - was
formed of the advocacy efforts of
scientist.

NATIONAL BIOSAFETY FRAMEWORK (NBF) of

2006

- During march 17 2006, in the office of

president and was promulgated the
executive order number 514
establishing NBF -prescribes guidelines
for the implementation and
strengthening of NCBP and combination
of policy legal administrative and
technical instruments develop to attain
the objective of Cartagena protocol on
biosafety which the Philippines sign on
may 24, 2000.
