biology experiments will be conducted using transformed bacteria to
generate recombinant DNA constructs.

2.E.2 Does your work involve human subjects?No
2.E.3 If not requesting ongoing access, list date ranges for which you are requesting access

-

2.F Prioritization considerations

I would like to request access for my students for all working days of the week.

2.G.1.a Describe any scheduling tools you will use to control access to particular rooms and appratus?

If needed, an outlook calendar will be used to plan all lab activity and keep track
of everyone's time and presence in the designated rooms/labs. In
addition the calendar will allow scheduling of staggered working
schedules if lab occupancy is to be exceeded.
The calendar will be shared with facility to allow monitoring and easy
information collection for tracing purposes.

2.G.1.c Are there any circumstances where personnel CANNOT maintain physical distancing for short periods of time?No
2.G.2 Anyone who is sick must stay home

3 Ramp-down and temporary suspension of work plans

The
following protocol applies for both temporary or indefinite shut-down
as there is no guaranty that a temporary shut-down could become
indefinite.
• Ensure freezers (-20C & -80C degrees) and fridges are connected to
emergency power.
• Ensure that one fume cupboard is connected to emergency power
• Samples and chemicals in the freezers that are temperature sensitive
will remain in freezers with emergency backup
• Actively growing cultures will be placed immediately into fridges; if
opportunity to freeze (time permission) this will be done.
• All equipment (with the exception of freezers and fridges) will be
disconnected from power supply; especially heat equipment like water
bath, heating blocks and ovens
• Chemicals in the portable fume cupboard (2033) will be moved to
non-portable fume cupboards in 2196 or 3025.
• Benchtop will be cleared and wiped down and freed of clutter
• All personal belongings will be removed from labs
• Glass bottles or reagents (at room temperature) will be stored away
into cupboards.
• Volatile chemicals will be stored away in the respective fume
cupboards, all flammables will be stored away into flammable cabinets
• Chemical waste will collect in one satellite collection point – this
fume cupboard should be connected to the emergency power outlet
• Accumulated waste will be autoclaved (if time permits)
