1. biosafety level 3

   A biosafety level (BSL), or pathogen/protection level, is a set of biocontainment precautions required to isolate dangerous biological agents in an enclosed laboratory facility. The levels of containment range from the lowest biosafety level 1 (BSL-1) to the highest at level 4 (BSL-4). In the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have specified these levels. In the European Union, the same biosafety levels are defined in a directive. In Canada the four levels are known as Containment Levels. Facilities with these designations are also sometimes given as P1 through P4 (for pathogen or protection level), as in the term P3 laboratory.At the lowest level of biosafety, precautions may consist of regular hand-washing and minimal protective equipment. At higher biosafety levels, precautions may include airflow systems, multiple containment rooms, sealed containers, positive pressure personnel suits, established protocols for all procedures, extensive personnel training, and high levels of security to control access to the facility. Health Canada reports that world-wide until 1999 there were recorded over 5,000 cases of accidental laboratory infections and 190 deaths.

1. biosafety level 3

   Biosafety Level 3 (BSL-3) is the third level of biosafety precautions, mandated by CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) or other health authorities, for laboratories and other facilities handling microorganisms or other biological material that could cause serious or potentially lethal disease through exposure or inhalation. Facilities at this biosafety level typically have unique features such as double-door entries, sealed windows, specialized ventilation systems, and other advanced measures to prevent accidental release or exposure to harmful biological materials.
