OGTR PC1 Laboratory Checklist
This OGTR PC1 laboratory checklist helps facilities verify compliance with Australian biosafety requirements for work involving GMOs and low-risk microorganisms. It covers facility security and signage, surfaces and furnishings, handwashing and eyewash availability, and the use and certification of biological safety cabinets. Sections guide decontamination practices, disinfectant suitability and expiry, autoclave calibration and validation, and routine bench and equipment cleaning. Waste segregation and GMO waste processing are addressed, along with backflow prevention, staff behavior requirements, PPE and lab coat storage, and measures to minimize aerosols.
