July 18, 2012Biosafety in the Clinical LaboratoryThe ability to characterize, recognize and mediate biological risks in the clinical lab is critical. A laboratory employee may have up to an 8000 time greater risk for exposure compared to the general public. This presentation characterizes biological risk agents and identified the various risks in a clinical lab. Appropriate containment strategies for biological risks are reviewed and reinforced in several scenarios.Speaker: Julia Engstrom-Melnyk, Ph.D., Medical and Scientific Affairs, Roche DiagnosticsDuration: 52 minutesCredit hours: 1.0...more54minPlay
