Abstract

Some fundamental criteria and typical layout sketches are presented to assist those interested in designing new infectious-disease laboratories or in the conversion of existing facilities. Typical safety equipment desirable in these laboratories is described. The basic concepts presented, and the equipment recommended, have been proved in actual practice and found to be of value in preventing laboratory infections.
