Description:

Laboratory biosecurity refers to the measures that are taken to safeguard sensitive biological materials and information against theft, loss, misuse, diversion or intentional release. Laboratory biosecurity policies hold laboratories accountable for the management and use of the biological materials and information they possess to prevent harm to human, animal and plant health, as well as food and environmental safety.

This toolkit is designed to equip laboratories with the knowledge and resources necessary to enhance biosecurity measurers within their facilities, strengthen existing biosecurity protocols or establish new ones—thereby ensuring the safety of both laboratory staff and the community. By providing biosecurity exercise examples and exercise design and development sections throughout the tool, the Association of Public Health Laboratories (APHL) aims to empower laboratories to proactively identify and mitigate potential biosecurity risks. Our intent is to foster a proactive approach to biosecurity, emphasizing prevention, preparedness and response. We encourage all users to engage with the exercises, leveraging insights gained to strengthen their laboratory’s biosecurity readiness.
