Before YOU start work in the SupraFAB Biolab, Optical Microscopy (OM)/Microfluidics (MF) facility, you have to get introduced by the Biolab Team to the lab safety rules and routines and you have to complete some administrative tasks.
This includes the following steps:
Listen to the oral safety instruction for the Genetic Engineering Facility 92/14 (obligatory once a year) and document that you understand everything by signature in the particiapation list (room 111).
Provide the filled and signed Questionnaire for Occupational Health Care to the Biolab Team.
Any mandatory medical check-up indicated by the questionnaire must be carried out at the FUB's Occupational Health Center prior to starting work and confirmed by a certificate indicating the date for the follow-up check-up.Become familiar with the
Operating instructions of the Genetic Engineering Facility 92/14 incl. the current Annex 2 Part A Il GenTSV,
the Emergency Guide,
the SupraFAB House Rules as well as
further BAs for devices, hazardous substances or working procedures.
Provide your zedat account name to Katharina Achazi to get access to the data storage servers, the biolab wiki and getting included in the biolab/OM mailing lists; in case you have no zedat acccount, apply at with zedat to get a one.
Subscrivbe to the Biolab Email List and if you like, join the biolab whatsapp group for fast exchange of information: https://chat.whatsapp.com/FdKWiUfyOdw3he84e6eAcX.
Applying for access and a transponder by providing the filled and signed transponder form to Achim Wiedekind (office 102) or Katharina Tebel (office 103) —> please indicate, if you need access out of the normal working hours (Mo-Fri: 7am-7pm), let approve by your professor/head of research group and note that working alone is forbidden and you always have to have a second person working with you.
Get a practical training and introduction by the Biolab Team based on the biolab agreement.
- In order to use devices and instruments, register for the instrument booking system OpenIRIS and get training by the device responsible person (listed in OpenIRIS); to access the OM facility microscopes, follow the instructions on the web page: Access to the Optical Microscopy (OM) Facility. In case you need to access the microfluidics, bacterial or virus lab, you need an additional practical training by the respective lab responsible person and you need to obey the additional rules for working with S2 pathogens.
In case you want to bring viruses, bacteria, cell lines or human material (including blood, serum, plasma, mucus or tissue) as well as reagents, assays, kits, antibodies or other substances to the biolab, register them in the wiki, provide the relevant safety information to the Biolab Team and make sure you are allowed to handle them in the biolab and you obey the relevant safety procedures. Hazardous subszatnces must be also registers in chemical data base of FUB the CLAKS.
For data storage we have the zellbio-useres network drive for the biolab and the BCP-storage for the OM/MF facility, as it is not allowed to connect USB drives to instruments of the biolab or OM/MF facility.
For printing, please use the Multi-User FollowMe-Printers (currently next one is located in Takustr. 3).
