Algorithm of Emergency Elimination when Working inside Bio-Safety Cabinets with Pathogenic Biological Agents

Abstract

Considered have been possible variants of emergencies, which may arise while working in BSC with pathogenic microorganisms. Put forward have been the algorithms for localization and control of the incident when working in BSC Safety Class II without spills; with spills within the working chamber; with spills and release of infectious material beyond the BSC working chamber; and incidents with compromised personal protection equipment.
