Recombinant DNA/microbial pathogens?

Answer this question ‘Yes’ if the proposal involves any of the terms below or involves any biohazardous and/or recombinant materials. For assistance, contact Research Laboratory & Safety Services at (520) 626-6850 or rlss-bio-support@email.arizona.edu(link sends e-mail) or visit the Recombinant and Biohazardous Materials web page.

If the project you are proposing involves the handling or storage of Risk Group 3 biohazardous and/or recombinant materials that would require the use of a BSL-3 laboratory, please contact Research Laboratory & Safety Services at rlss-help@arizona.edu. BSL-3 work must be approved in advance by the Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC). You can access the documents needed to submit to the committee at  Institutional Biosafety Committee | UArizona Research, Innovation & Impact. Access and training for the BSL-3 spaces is a lengthy process, so reaching out to RLSS early in the process is optimal.
