- Tài liệuLaboratory Biosafety Manual(World Health Organization, 2020) World Health Organization (WHO)The WHO Laboratory Biosafety Manual (4th edition) is a global reference for best practices in biosafety, widely adopted by clinical, public health, and biomedical laboratories. This edition emphasizes a risk-based approach, introduced in the previous edition, to ensure that biosafety measures match actual risks. The manual aims to help countries implement national codes of practice for handling biological agents safely. It promotes optimized resource use, sustainable biosafety and biosecurity policies, and equitable access to laboratory testing and research without compromising safety.
- Tài liệuBiology(OpenStax, 2018) Clark, Mary Ann; Douglas, Matthew; Choi, JungBiology 2e is a comprehensive textbook for a two-semester biology course, presenting core concepts and foundational research from an evolutionary perspective. It includes features that encourage scientific inquiry, career exploration, and real-world applications, along with practice and homework questions for concept mastery. The second edition offers clearer explanations, updated content, improved illustrations, and additional assessments while maintaining the structure of the first edition.
- Tài liệuBiochemistry: Free For All(Oregon State University, 2018) Ahern, Kevin; Rajagopal, Indira; Tan, TaralynThe book covers both foundational and advanced topics in biochemistry, including basic biology and chemistry, biomolecule structures, membrane systems, catalysis, energy processes, and metabolic pathways. It also addresses genetic mechanisms, gene regulation, cell signaling, and key biochemical techniques. Additionally, the “Point by Point” sections provide concise reviews of essential concepts for quick reference.
- Tài liệuEmerging Threats of Synthetic Biology and Biotechnology(Springer Nature, 2021) Trump, Benjamin D. (editor); Florin, Marie-Valentine (editor); Perkins, Edward (editor); Linkov, Igor (editor)This open-access book examines biosecurity risks and mitigation strategies in synthetic biology, a rapidly advancing field with applications in medicine, sustainability, and energy. It addresses dual-use concerns, where technologies could be misused by individuals, rogue states, or non-state actors, and explores ways to prevent, mitigate, and recover from biosecurity challenges. Key topics include developing scalable governance frameworks, strategies for risk management from lab to international levels, and balancing innovation with safety to avoid health and environmental hazards. Contributions from leading experts provide guidance on oversight, regulatory policies, and collaborative approaches for managing synthetic biology risks.
- Tài liệuFundamentals of Biochemistry(University of Manitoba, 2023) Jakubowski, Henry; Flatt, PatriciaThis text is designed for the two-semester introductory biochemistry course but could be customized for a one-semester course as well. Biochemistry is the application of chemistry to the study of biological processes at the cellular and molecular levels. It emerged as a distinct discipline around the beginning of the 20th century when scientists combined chemistry, physiology, and biology to investigate the chemistry of living systems. Biochemistry is both a life science and a chemical science - it explores the chemistry of living organisms and the molecular basis for the changes occurring in living cells. It uses the methods of chemistry, physics, molecular biology, and immunology to study the structure and behavior of the complex molecules found in biological material and the ways these molecules interact to form cells, tissues, and whole organisms. The chapter organization generally follows the traditionally used biochemistry texts to allow easier adoption by faculty and use by students.
