New EH&E White Paper Helps Biotech Laboratories Maintain a High Level of Infection Control

NEWTON, Mass. – July 24, 2006 – A new free white paper entitled “Biosafety Review Key to Infection Control,” is available to help biotech laboratories minimize the risk of infection through focused biosafety reviews.

This paper outlines a biosafety review process developed by EH&E staff for biotechnology, pharmaceutical and research laboratory clients. It’s available for download at: http://www.eheinc.com/biosafety.htm from EH&E, a leading provider of health & safety and engineering consulting services for the biotech industry.

“Remaining in compliance with NIH recombinant DNA guidelines, the Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL) guidelines, and the Bloodborne Pathogens Standard is very demanding given the changing R&D efforts seen in many companies. We’ve found the best approach to maintaining compliance and reducing risk is a periodic biosafety review,” said Jack McCarthy, President and co-founder of EH&E.

This white paper describes a biosafety review process developed by EH&E staff that has a proven track record for maintaining worker safety in these environments. The paper will be interesting and informative to all those responsible for maintaining an environmental health and safety compliance program involving biological laboratories.
