About the Book

In recognition of the vital need to protect legitimate facilities from the theft and misuse of dangerous pathogens and toxins, the Laboratory Biosecurity Handbook serves as a guide to the implementation of pathogen protection programs. The first sections of the book offer an historical overview of biological weapons activity, key principles of biosecurity and its integration into existing frameworks, as well as a discussion of biosecurity risk. Later sections discuss biosecurity risk assessments, describe detailed components of a biosecurity program, and offer a graded approach to biosecurity through multiple risk levels. The work also covers risk prioritization of biological assets and biosecurity training.

Table of Contents:
Introduction. Risk Assessment. Components of Biosecurity. Program Management. Specific Biosecurity Recommendations. Conclusions. List of Acronyms. Glossary. Appendices.

Review :
"… I believe that this book contains quite valuable information useful for increasing the security of those bioscience facilities in which dangerous biological agents are kept. I was impressed by the wealth of important information he authors compiled in this book. Salerno and Gaudioso managed to prepare a concise handbook that is well structured and illustrated. Aside from the excellent explanations in the text, I was captured by the high-quality color illustrations … ." … this handbook should have a place in bioscience libraries and in offices of departmental chairpersons, laboratory supervisors, directors and managers, security officers and other bio-terrorism specialists in order to provide optimal access to the information … ." — Christian T. K.-H. Stadtlander, University of St. Thomas, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota in Microbe, Volume 3, No. 5, 2008 "In this text, the author’s state objective to attempt to begin documenting some of the methods and procedures for designing and implementing a laboratory biosecurity system is met and exceeded . . . The text is written in a logical manner using a detailed outline format for easy reading and reference. This book would be an excellent addition to any security director’s library, especially those employed at colleges, universities, hospitals and commercial entities that conduct biology-related research and development." – Jack F. Dowling, JD Security Consultants, in Security Management, Sept 2008
