2022年11月15日 · Most virology laboratories are divided into seven different spaces: Traditionally, these spaces would be sequestered with immobile built-in walls. However, this old-fashioned solution offers little flexibility and may create cramped spaces.

2016年4月15日 · The design of a modern-day clinical virology laboratory can be especially challenging, given the continued application of traditional viral cell culture in some laboratories and the increasing use of molecular techniques (e.g., real-time PCR) for the diagnosis of …

Design doors, hallways, and aisles of sufficient width for standard lab carts and equipment moves. Provide dedicated storage areas, closets, and/or hanging areas for lab coats and for personal items and clothing. Lab coat hangers should be located near the entrance to the lab.

Biological agent: A microorganism, virus, biological toxin, particle or otherwise infectious material, either naturally occurring or genetically modified, which may have the potential to cause infection, allergy, toxicity or otherwise create a hazard to humans, animals, or plants.

Some fundamental criteria and typical layout sketches are presented to assist those interested in designing new infectious-disease laboratories or in the conversion of existing facilities. Some typical safety equipment desir-able in these laboratories is described.

2023年3月2日 · Review aisle way clearances including code considerations, passage of equipment, and avoid back-to-back chair arrangements. Confirm the placement of all lab safety fixtures and equipment including eye washes, safety showers, and fire blankets. Review the need for controlled access to the lab and support spaces.

In this issue we have increased our focus in two areas – 1) sustainability to align with the University’s goals of Plan 2030, and 2) universal design to make labs accessible to the broadest range of individuals without the need for specific accommodations. The Laboratory Design Guideline can be found in these locations:

The Laboratory design and maintenance monograph covers laboratory design and maintenance, the process of building, renovating or repurposing a laboratory. This monograph describes design considerations for different types of lab facilities and is targeted to the wide range of people, including construction engineers and architects, that would ...

Laboratories are traditionally designed as units, compartmentalized, self-contained and not collectively. Scientists are separated from each other in formally arranged and rigid layouts, reflecting linear processes and static functionality. permeable barrier between them.

2024年7月23日 · Develop a floor plan and layout: Consider the workflow, traffic flow, and safety protocols when designing your laboratory layout. Consider safety features and emergency protocols: Think about ventilation systems, fire suppression systems, and emergency exits.
