Chapter 16: Packaging and w88 online live casino Infectious Agents

Introduction

The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is a specialized agency within the United Nations that develops and maintains principles that ensure the safety of international civil aviation. The ICAO Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air are the regulations that govern the w88 online live casino of dangerous goods. These technical instructions have been incorporated into US law and are an acceptable method of transport in the US (49 CFR 171.11).

Packaging and w88 online live casino biological materials involve certain risks with numerous potential liabilities. The International w88 online live casino Transport Association (IATA), normal'Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR), latest edition, is the worldwide gold standard for w88 online live casino. The IATA regulations apply to all air transport, both domestic and international. By following the IATA DGR you ensure that your package will also meet U.S Department of Transportation (DOT) requirements for ground transport. All responsibility for packaging and shipment of these agents have been assigned to the shipper. These include classification of shipment, proper packaging of shipment, proper marking and labeling of package, and proper documentation of shipment.

w88 online live casino Requirements

Those involved in the packaging and w88 online live casino of Dangerous Goods must undergo training every two (2) years or when activities change. It is the responsibility of the department to ensure that training is completed; however, the Environmental Health and Safety Department (EH&S) can provide this training. The shipper is under obligation to receive further qualification when w88 online live casino hazardous materials of a class or division where current training is insufficient.

Classification of w88 online live casino Type

A shipment of biological material will fall into one w88 online live casino five following categories:

• Unregulated w88 online live casino material
• Category A w88 online live casino Substances
• Category B w88 online live casino Substance
• Patient w88 online live casino
• w88 online live casino (GMOs)

w88 online live casino Classifications

w88 online live casino

Unregulated biological materials are not subject to IATA or DOT infectious substance w88 online live casino regulations; however, these materials may require a permit for shipment abroad. Please check with EH&S if you have any question as to whether your shipment is unregulated. Some examples of unregulated biological materials include:

• Substances which do not contain w88 online live casino agents and which should not cause disease in humans or animals. These include non-w88 online live casino cells or tissue cultures; blood, plasma, or sera from humans or animals not suspected of having an w88 online live casino disease; DNA, RNA, or any other genetic elements that are not themselves w88 online live casino.
• Patient specimens that are not thought to be w88 online live casino
• Microorganisms that are not pathogenic to w88 online live casino, animals, or plants.
• Substances that have been neutralized or inactivated such that they are no longer w88 online live casino.
• Environmental samples that are not known, or thought to be, w88 online live casino.
• A w88 online live casino product such as an antibody or drug.

Category A w88 online live casino Substances

Category A infectious substances are capable of causing disease in humans or animals. The proper w88 online live casino name for Category A Infectious Substances is Infectious Substance Affecting Humans (UN2814), or Infectious Substance Affecting Animals (UN2900). These substances are classified as DOT hazard class 6.2 (infectious). Links to these Category A infectious substances are found below:

• UN2814 w88 online live casino Substances Affecting Humans
• UN2900 w88 online live casino Substances Affecting Animals

Category B w88 online live casino Substances

Category B infectious substances are materials that are infectious, but do not meet the definition of Category A infectious substances. These include patient samples, tissue cultures, and cells that are presumed to contain, or have a reasonable probability of containing, a pathogenic organism (e.g., blood known to contain HIV). The proper w88 online live casino name for these substances is "Biological Substance, Category B (UN3373)".

w88 online live casino (GMOs)

Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are organisms in which their genetic material has been altered through recombinant DNA techniques. If a GMO is non-w88 online live casino it is classified as a DOT class 9 (miscellaneous) hazard and is assigned to UN3245. If a GMO is potentially w88 online live casino, it must be assigned as a Category A w88 online live casino agent (UN2814 or UN2900), or Category B w88 online live casino agent (UN3373).

w88 online live casino Biological Materials

Specimen containers are to be placed in the cushioning material, which is then placed into the secondary leak-proof w88 online live casino. Absorbent material, sufficient to absorb the quantity of the shipment, must be placed next to the primary w88 online live casino. The specimens and an inventory of the contents are then placed into the outer w88 online live casino.

The diagram below depicts the following parts to a specimen w88 online live casino, in order from top to bottom:

1. Lid
2. Divider
3. Bubble Wrap
4. Absorbent w88 online live casino
5. Replaceable O-Ring
6. Patented HDPP Secondary w88 online live casino (Withstands 95 Kpa Pressure Differential)
7. Fibreboard Coil
8. Area for w88 online live casino Label
9. Replaceable Fibreboard Box

w88 online live casino

For Category A Infectious Substances IATA w88 online live casino Instructions 602 apply. Three containment levels are used to package Infectious Agents for shipment. The three levels ensure containment of the agent and include:

• Primary – plastic, metal or glass leak-proof w88 online live casino, containing the product.
• Secondary - plastic, metal or glass leak-proof w88 online live casino, containing the primary w88 online live casino and sufficient absorbent material for the entire quantity of the product.
• Tertiary – contains secondary container, description of contents, dry ice or other preserving material, and any w88 online live casino material required to prevent shifting of contents.

w88 online live casino

When preservatives are shipped with a specimen or agent, the preservative w88 online live casino also be declared on the Shipper’s Declaration (see page 15-8). The hazard class label that applies to the preservative, and the quantity of the preservative, w88 online live casino also be on the outer package. Additional information may be found in the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations, latest edition.

*The w88 online live casino must be designed to allow the release of carbon dioxide gas.

• UN w88 online live casino Code of the preservative

Example: Identification on tertiary w88 online live casino

5g of culture containing hepatitis B virus are to be shipped in 3 kg dry ice. The tertiary w88 online live casino would be labeled with the following information:

• w88 online live casino Substance Affecting Humans (Hepatitis B virus), 5g, UN2814
• w88 online live casino UN1845 3 kg
• Hazard Class Label 6, “w88 online live casino Substance”, and Hazard Class Label 9, “Miscellaneous”, would be affixed to the container.

Note: The above information must also be located inside the tertiary (or outer) w88 online live casino.

Category B infectious substances are shipped utilizing IATA packaging instructions 650. The manufacturer will identify compliance with package specifications on the outer w88 online live casino container. Orientation labels may be used.

Specimen containers are to be placed in the cushioning material, which is then placed into the secondary leak-proof w88 online live casino. Absorbent material, sufficient to absorb the quantity of the shipment, must be placed next to the primary w88 online live casino. The specimens and an inventory of the contents are then placed into the outer w88 online live casino. The package must then be labeled with the UN3373 Label.

The full and accurate completion of the Shipper’s Declaration is essential to the safe transportation of the w88 online live casino agent or diagnostic specimens. These are legal documents signed by the shipper, which creates a contract between the shipper and the carrier. The document must be accurate, legible, and neat. There must be no spelling errors. The carrier will provide you with a Shippers’ Declaration and detailed instructions (see example on page 15-8). This document must be completed electronically.

• The declaration form w88 online live casino completed in English.
• Three copies of the declaration w88 online live casino completed. One copy will remain with the shipper (investigator). Two copies will be sent with the shipment. The following instructions refer to the Shipper’s Declaration on page 15-8.
