Abstract:Standardized management is one of the key prerequisites to guarantee the effective and safe functioning of high-level biosafety laboratories. After the outbreak of SARS, more and more biosafety laboratories of different levels have been established in China. Special and standardized management system for biosafety laboratories has become a necessity and core concern.This paper describes the current status of Chinese standards on biosafety management and analyzes its relativity with other laboratory biosafety standard systems in developed countries. Based on these analyses, a biosafety laboratory standard system framework is developed, and the policy environment for building the system is suggested, aiming to promote the promulgation of specific biosafety standards and to secure the effective functioning of high-level biosafety laboratories.
