The basic recommended design features of TB laboratories to ensure appropriate biosafety are:<\/p>\n\n

Adequate ventilation and directional airflow; 6-12 air exchanges per hour (ACH) is adequate ventilation<\/span><\/strong> for TB laboratories.<\/li>\n\t
Ample space for the safe conduct of laboratory work and for cleaning and maintenance (Figure 1).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n"},"subContentId":"e04e6254-c4a4-40cb-a20b-f38fbca6e6b5","metadata":{"contentType":"Text","license":"U","title":"Untitled Text"}},"alwaysDisplayComments":false,"backgroundOpacity":0,"displayAsButton":false,"buttonSize":"big","goToSlideType":"specified","invisible":false,"solution":""},{"x":28.32244008714597,"y":34.557235421166304,"width":37.03703703703704,"height":55.50755939524838,"action":{"library":"H5P.Image 1.1","params":{"decorative":false,"contentName":"Image","file":{"path":"images\/file-6437cb331179b.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","copyright":{"license":"U"},"width":644,"height":489}},"subContentId":"3808acb3-8ed1-4e2b-9afb-94e800261f5a","metadata":{"contentType":"Image","license":"U","title":"Untitled Image"}},"alwaysDisplayComments":false,"backgroundOpacity":0,"displayAsButton":false,"buttonSize":"big","goToSlideType":"specified","invisible":false,"solution":""},{"x":28.32244008714597,"y":90.71274298056156,"width":41.394335511982575,"height":5.183585313174946,"action":{"library":"H5P.AdvancedText 1.1","params":{"text":"

Walls, ceilings and floors should be smooth and easy to clean.<\/li>\n\t
Floors should be slip-resistant.<\/li>\n\t
Benchtops should be resistant to the chemicals and disinfectants normally used in the laboratory.<\/li>\n\t
Proper and adequate illumination: Undesirable reflections and glare should be avoided; curtains must not be used.<\/li>\n\t
Open spaces between and under benches, cabinets and equipment to allow access for cleaning.<\/li>\n\t
Storage spaces should have the following features:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
\n\t
Adequate to hold supplies for immediate use and prevent clutter on bench tops and in corridors outside the laboratory.<\/li>\n\t
Provision of additional space for long-term storage conveniently located outside work areas.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
\n\t
Well-defined and specific area for safe preparation, handling and storage of acids, stains and solvents.<\/li>\n\t
Facilities for eating, drinking and resting should be provided outside work areas.<\/li>\n\t
Provisions for adequate handwashing, which includes:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
\n\t
Sink and soap in every room of the laboratory, preferably located near the exit.<\/li>\n\t
