22、 micro-organisms and genetically modified micro-organisms (GMMs), with both non-pathogenic and pathogenic micro-organisms (see annex A 1 2). 1 Scope This European Standard gives guidance for good practice, procedures, training and control for the operation of large scale biotechnological processes.
23、NOTE. For laboratories associated with a large scale process, attention is drawn to prEN 12741 (see annex A 8). In addition, this European Standard gives recommendations for education and training of personnel involved in the large scale handling of micro-organisms in plant building of containment l
24、evels 1, 2, 3 and 4 (see EN 1620). This European Standard aims at the protection of the workers from biological hazards as well as the environment including plants and animals. For operations using micro-organisms only pathogenic for the environment (plant or some animal pathogens e.g. foot and mout
25、h disease virus), this European Standard should be adapted according to the risk for environment and taking into account the recommendations of the national competent authorities. This European Standard is complemented by: physical containment which requirements are given in EN 1620 ; and personal p
26、rotective equipment which requirements are given in EN 143, EN 166, EN 374-1 and EN 374-3. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the
27、publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies. EN 143

31、nd/or operated in such a manner as to limit contamination of the other areas by micro-organisms/organisms from within the controlled area EN 1620. 3.2 hazard Intrinsic potential property or ability of something (e.g. any agent, equipment, material or process) to cause harm EN 1620. NOTE. Harm is an
32、injury or damage to health of people and/or to the environment. 3.3 micro-organism Any microbiological entity, cellular or non-cellular, capable of replication or of transferring genetic material EN 1619. NOTE. For the purposes of this standard, the term micro-organism covers the term of biological
33、agent, according to the Directive 90/679/EEC : micro-organisms, including those which have been genetically modified, cell cultures and human endoparasites, which may be able to provoke any infection, allergy or toxicity. 3.4 risk Probability of occurrence of a hazard causing harm and the degree of
34、severity of the harm. 3.5 workplace The workplace is the defined area or areas in which the work activities are carried out EN 689. 4 General considerations Before handling, micro-organisms should be classified with respect to human health and safety and hazard to the environment, according to natio
35、nal, European (see annex A 1 and 2) or international rules of classification. They should be handled in appropriate plant buildings of containment levels 1, 2, 3 or 4 as indicated by an assessment of risk. Plant building should be designed in accordance with EN 1620.Page 4 EN 12307 : 1997 BSI 1998 F
36、or any activity involving micro-organisms in large scale process and production activities, the principles of Good Occupational Safety and Hygiene (GOSH) (see annex A 5) Good Microbiological Techniques (see annex A 9), and Good Industrial Large Scale Practice (GILSP) (see annex A 6) should apply. Th
37、e basic recommendations for good microbiological practice are given in 5.1. Additional recommendations may be necessary in case of activities with potentially harmful micro-organisms. Where appropriate, these additional recommendations are given in 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4. When micro-organisms are strictly
38、 pathogenic for plants and animals, specific recommendations aiming to limit or prevent their release into the environment via the workers, can be implemented on a case by case basis. It is emphasized that good microbiological practices are fundamental to safety and cannot generally be replaced by s
39、pecialized equipment which can only supplement it partly. NOTE. In this European Standard, the term good microbiological practice is used throughout. The term good manufacturing practices (see annex A 7) relates mainly to the pharmaceutical industries and is not referred to in this document. 5 Recom
40、mendations for handling micro-organisms in large scale process and production activities 5.1 Basic recommendations for good microbiological practice The following should be observed for handling all types of micro-organisms: a) workplace and environmental exposure to micro-organisms should be kept a
41、s low as reasonably practicable; b) animals not involved in the work should not be permitted in or near the workplace; c) the workplace should be kept neat, clean and free of materials that are not pertinent to the work; d) pipetting by mouth should be prohibited; materials should not be placed in t
42、he mouth; e) all technical procedures should be performed in a way that minimizes the uncontained formation of aerosols and droplets; f) control methods should be set up with engineering at source and these should be supplemented with appropriate personal protective equipment where necessary; g) con
43、trol measures should be carried out and equipment should be tested and maintained; h) eating, drinking, smoking, storing of food and applying cosmetics should not be permitted in any area where infectious materials are handled; i) workers should be provided with appropriate and adequate washing and
44、toilet facilities; j) hands should be washed before leaving the workplace; k) workers should be provided with suitable work clothing and if necessary, additional personal protective equipment; l) local rules for the safety and hygiene of personnel should be formulated and implemented; m) adequate wr
45、itten instructions should be available to keep exposure to any micro-organism to the lowest level that is reasonably practicable; n) training of personnel should be provided and recorded (see clause 6). 5.2 Additional recommendations for handling micro-organisms in a containment level 2 The followin
46、g should be observed in addition to 5.1 for handling micro-organisms in plant building of containment level 2 : a) access to the workplace should be limited to nominated personnel; b) whilst work is in progress access to the controlled area should be restricted and clearly indicated. Entry points to
47、 the area (e.g. doors and windows) should be closed; c) in the event of spillage, the contaminated areas should be disinfected by validated procedures; d) all materials (liquid, solid and gas) should be made safe by validated means before leaving the controlled area; e) material, equipment and work
48、clothing awaiting decontamination should be stored and transported in a safe manner in robust leakproof containers; f) workplaces and equipment should be made safe prior to maintenance work. A system of formal authorization such as permit-to-work, should be instituted for maintenance personnel; g) e
49、ffective disinfectants should be available for routine disinfection; h) hands should be immediately disinfected and then washed when contamination is suspected, after handling infectious materials and also before leaving the workplace; i) workers should immediately report any accident or incident to the person in charge or to the person responsible for safety and health at work; j) work clothing should not be stored in the same lockers or cupboard as street clothing; k) work clot
