1. Workflow Is a Biosafety Control In high-containment laboratories, safety is not only maintained by walls, filters, or PPE—it also depends on how people, samples, and materials move through the space. Effective biosafety labs are designed around unidirectional workflow, where clean and contaminated zones are clearly separated, and every process supports containment. 2. What Is Unidirectional [...]

Interior of BSL-3 laboratory 1. From Routine Testing to Risk Management Many diagnostic and research facilities operate with minimal containment infrastructure, even when handling potentially hazardous specimens. As biological risks escalate—from local TB outbreaks to global pandemics—higher biosafety standards are no longer optional. Biosafety laboratories are not simply regulatory checkboxes. They are critical infrastructure for [...]
