SMTP Lab Safety Briefing (SMTP and Cat 1 Students)
Generalbull Students can only work in the lab in the presence of
a teacher or lab staffbull Booking of equipment and requests for materials
must be made to at least 3 days prior to experiments with mentor kept informedMdm Lim Bio lab (limcfhcedusg)Mdm Xia Chem lab (xiayinghcedusg)Mdm Chua PhysicsPhotonics
bull SRC Tel no 64680379
General rules
bull Please keep lab tidy at all timesbull Spills must be cleaned immediately to avoid
contaminationbull Gloves must be worn when handling
hazardous materialsbull Chipped or broken glassware should never be
used Please give these to lab staff for disposal
General rulesbull Centrifuges must be balanced before operation
Scientific Review Committee (SRC) Approval
bull Apply for approval (through your mentor) from the Scientific Review Committee if your project involves any of thesendash Potentially hazardous biologial agents
(eg bacteria)ndash Vertebrates
Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval
bull Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval required for studies involvingndash Human Subjects
bull An IRB must includendash A science educatorndash A school administrator (Principal or VP)ndash A medical doctor physicianrsquos assistant registered
nurse psychiatrist psychologist licensed social worker or licensed clinical professional counsellor
SRC Approval
bull Approval from must be submitted to Mrs Goh Cheng Wai before the commencement of your projects ( see Mrs Gohrsquos EMB msg)
bull SMP groups will submit forms to Mr Chia KP
Research Projects
bull Students working in Research labs must wear a lab coat These should be folded and placed on designated shelves when not in use (ref Lab staff)
bull In bio labs laminar hoods --- perspex shield must be in place if UV light is turned on
Microbiology Projects
bull All microorganisms must be treated as potential human pathogens
bull Only Biosafety Level 1 organisms can be usedbull Microorganisms should not be isolated from
potentially hazardous sources egs polluted water human mucus pus and faeces
bull All microbial cultures and culture media must be labelled date name of student amp teacher
Microbiology Projects
bull BSL1 low risk to individual and the communitybull BSL2 moderate risk to individual but low risk to the
community Can cause diseases in human but unlikely to be serious hazards to lab users under normal circumstances
bull BSL3 high risk to individual but low risk to community Usually cause diseases in human treatable with anti-microbial agents not contagious
bull BSL4 high risk to individual and community Usually cause serious diseases in human untreatable and contagious
Prohibited work
Studies involvingbull Fresh tissue blood or body fluids from
humans or vertebratesbull Human or animal blood or blood productsbull Human or vertebratemammalian cell tissue
cultures
Approved work
Studies involvingbull Plant tissuebull Cheek cells (but not cultures)bull Meat or meat by-products obtained from
food stores restaurants or packing housesbull Hairbull Sterilised teeth
Disposal of sharps
bull Sharps --- needles scalpel blades micropipette tips glass slides cover slips
Sharps bins
Decontamination
bull Autoclave or bleach all cultured organisms esp microbes before disposal
bull Disinfect work surfaces if microbes were used --- swab with 70 alcohol
Reminder
bull Young Explorersrsquo Fund (YEF)bull Capped at $2000 a groupbull Can apply any time ndash submit forms to mentorsbull Forms on SMTP webpage
Risk Assessment
SMTP Research Session
bull Risk assessment is needed for all Cat 1 projectsbull To be completed by students reviewed and approved
by mentorbull Before experiments begin risk assessment to be
submitted to SRC - Mdm Lim (for bio projects)- Mdm Xia (for chem projects)- Mdm Chua (for phy projects)
bull SMTP students will complete risk assessment together with proposals Mentor to submit to above personnel after heshe approves
Risk assessment
Risk Assessment Documents
bull SRC Equipment Risk Assessmentbull Risk assessment form
Both forms will be available from SMTP wiki
How to complete risk assessment
bull For risk assessment of equipment refer to resourcesSMTP wiki
bull For chemicals search for MSDS online look for info on possible hazards and measures to reduce the risks
bull For micro-organisms check out on- biosafety level of bacteria- possible infection- handling precautions
Useful sites for biology projects

bull Only Biosafety Level 1 organisms can be usedbull Microorganisms should not be isolated from
potentially hazardous sources egs polluted water human mucus pus and faeces
bull All microbial cultures and culture media must be labelled date name of student amp teacher
Microbiology Projects
bull BSL1 low risk to individual and the communitybull BSL2 moderate risk to individual but low risk to the
community Can cause diseases in human but unlikely to be serious hazards to lab users under normal circumstances
bull BSL3 high risk to individual but low risk to community Usually cause diseases in human treatable with anti-microbial agents not contagious
bull BSL4 high risk to individual and community Usually cause serious diseases in human untreatable and contagious
Prohibited work
Studies involvingbull Fresh tissue blood or body fluids from
humans or vertebratesbull Human or animal blood or blood productsbull Human or vertebratemammalian cell tissue
cultures
Approved work
Studies involvingbull Plant tissuebull Cheek cells (but not cultures)bull Meat or meat by-products obtained from
food stores restaurants or packing housesbull Hairbull Sterilised teeth
Disposal of sharps
bull Sharps --- needles scalpel blades micropipette tips glass slides cover slips
Sharps bins
Decontamination
bull Autoclave or bleach all cultured organisms esp microbes before disposal
bull Disinfect work surfaces if microbes were used --- swab with 70 alcohol
Reminder
bull Young Explorersrsquo Fund (YEF)bull Capped at $2000 a groupbull Can apply any time ndash submit forms to mentorsbull Forms on SMTP webpage
Risk Assessment
SMTP Research Session
bull Risk assessment is needed for all Cat 1 projectsbull To be completed by students reviewed and approved
by mentorbull Before experiments begin risk assessment to be
submitted to SRC - Mdm Lim (for bio projects)- Mdm Xia (for chem projects)- Mdm Chua (for phy projects)
bull SMTP students will complete risk assessment together with proposals Mentor to submit to above personnel after heshe approves
Risk assessment
Risk Assessment Documents
bull SRC Equipment Risk Assessmentbull Risk assessment form
Both forms will be available from SMTP wiki
How to complete risk assessment
bull For risk assessment of equipment refer to resourcesSMTP wiki
bull For chemicals search for MSDS online look for info on possible hazards and measures to reduce the risks
bull For micro-organisms check out on- biosafety level of bacteria- possible infection- handling precautions
