Examples of typical BSL-3 biological material Bacteria: Yersinia pestis, Brucella abortus, Chlamydia psittaci, Pseudomonas mallei Viruses: West Nile fever, herpes B, hepatitis A Biosafety level 4 (BSL-4) BSL-4 entails handling very dangerous and exotic biological material that may cause infecti...
Level 2 Biosafety level two would cover work with agents associated with human disease, in other words, pathogenic or infectious organisms posing a moderate hazard. Examples are the equine encephalitis viruses and HIV when performin...
Biosafety level 2 (BSL-2) covers all laboratories that work with agents associated with human diseases — that is, pathogenic or infectious organisms — that pose a moderate health hazard. Common examples of agents found in a BSL-2 lab include equine encephalitis viruses, HIV, and staphylococcus...
Examples are Bacillus subtilis, Naegleria gruberi, and infectious canine hepatitis virus. Thus, BSL-1 containment only requires a sink for handwashing. Biosafety Level 2 is appropriate for clinical, diagnostic, teaching, and other laboratories which deal with indigenous moderate-risk agents linked ...

Examples of European biobanks specialized in pathogens are the Spanish HIV Biobank or the Infectious Diseases BioBank at King’s College London [38]. Biobanking is also an integrated activity of European Bio-Safety Level 4 (BSL4) facilities associated with the European Research Infrastructure on Hig...
