Project: Yeast Artifical Organell


Bio-safety Questions

Contents

1. Would any of your project ideas raise safety issues in terms of: researcher safety, public safety, or environmental safety?

- No. All our experiments are based on commonly used E. coli and yeast strains. All strains have been inactivated when experiments were accomplished.

2. Do any of the new BioBrick parts (or devices) that you made this year raise any safety issues?

- No.

3. Is there a local biosafety group, committee, or review board at your institution?

- Yes, there is a group of experts working on bio-ethic and bio-safety in BGI Research Institute, leading by our advisor Prof. Dr. Huanming YANG. After listening to our ideas, they have given an opinion that our project is innocuous.

4. Do you have any other ideas how to deal with safety issues that could be useful for future iGEM competitions? How could parts, devices and systems be made even safer through biosafety engineering?

- An expert in bio-engineering, who can also work as an advisor, is expected to each team, to guide them dealing with strains and DNA fragments, if necessary.
