USAHA Web -- 1998 Report of the USAHA Committee on Foreign Animal Diseases: Biocontainment However, the ability to successfully study infectious animal diseases in the laboratory is predicated on a number of factors. These include pre-existing technical and scientific expertise on the disease or a closely related disease process, adequate funding, which in turn is directly related to prioritization of need, and lastly, availability of suitable facilities for studying the diseases. Levels are determined based on potential threat to the workers and the surrounding animal communities in a system referred to as "biosafety levels." There are four basic biosafety levels and the decision about placing agents in a category rests with the biosafety committee at the local institution. stevequayle.com /News.alert/04_Disease/040129.r98fbioc.html   (1557 words)
