“Comprehensive coverage of the identification, assessment, and management of biological hazards.

• Presents the essentials for a complete biological safety program, with specific advice on management and implementation issues.
• Covers the identification, assessment, and management of hazardous biological agents and toxins.
• Updates information on laboratory-acquired infections and examines epidemiology and routes of exposure.
• Refers extensively to current NIH, CDC, and other regulations and guidelines.
• Addresses special considerations, from teaching and industrial labs to biosecurity programs.
• Serves as a resource for those involved in biological safety, including program managers, biological safety professionals.”
