    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard, in order to protect the worker and/or the environment, gives guidance on minimum physical biosafety measures for the containment of animals deliberately inoculated with microorganisms, including genetically modified microorganisms, which can present a risk to human or animal health or the environment. This European Standard does not apply to the containment of animals which have not been deliberately inoculated with microorganisms.
