Laboratories Risks Assessments in Iran Shrimp Research Center
In order to continue improving the quality of Iranian fisheries science research institute's laboratories activities, For the first time in the years 2014-2015, a project with the subject of ―risk assessment of laboratories‖ conducted in Iran Shrimp Research Center, to determine the risk factors, potential risks and provide action plans to prevent the occurrence of any risks and increasing awareness of staff to safety issues. This project was done in eight laboratories which were named: Plankton, Pathology, Molecular genetics (extraction and elechtrophoresis), Pollutants, Marine physical chemistry, Sediment and benthos, Aquatic animal biometry and Microbiology with Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) methods. The assessment process was designed and implemented in two phases: at the first phase, the current situation of safety indexes, risks identification and distance to laboratory safety parameters included: working environment, physical factors, test methods and the human factors were done, then risk assessment and risk management of identified risks were followed by check list forms. At the second phase, based on the findings ,control measures and safety guidelines were done and provided. According to the findings, the highest risk score related to Microbiology laboratory and pollutant laboratory with RPN 210, at the next level Marine physical chemistry laboratory with risk number 150 and respectively Molecular genetics laboratory (extraction), Sediment and benthos, Pathology, Molecular genetics (electrophoresis), Plankton and Aquatic animal biometry laboratories were existed. After control measures, the risk number of laboratories decreased as follows: Microbiology to 150, Pollutants to 120, Marine physical chemistry laboratory to 80, Molecular genetics (extraction) and Sediment and Benthos Laboratories to 48, Pathology decrease to 18, Molecular genetics (electrophoresis), Plankton and Aquatic animal biometry laboratories decreased to 8. It is hoped that by promoting safety knowledge of laboratory staff and providing financial can be able to reduce risk assessment number of all laboratories to very low rank.

| Summary: | In order to continue improving the quality of Iranian fisheries science research institute's laboratories activities,
For the first time in the years 2014-2015, a project with the subject of ―risk assessment of laboratories‖
conducted in Iran Shrimp Research Center, to determine the risk factors, potential risks and provide action plans
to prevent the occurrence of any risks and increasing awareness of staff to safety issues. This project was done in
eight laboratories which were named: Plankton, Pathology, Molecular genetics (extraction and elechtrophoresis),
Pollutants, Marine physical chemistry, Sediment and benthos, Aquatic animal biometry and Microbiology with
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) methods. The assessment process was designed and implemented in
two phases: at the first phase, the current situation of safety indexes, risks identification and distance to
laboratory safety parameters included: working environment, physical factors, test methods and the human
factors were done, then risk assessment and risk management of identified risks were followed by check list
forms. At the second phase, based on the findings ,control measures and safety guidelines were done and
provided. According to the findings, the highest risk score related to Microbiology laboratory and pollutant
laboratory with RPN 210, at the next level Marine physical chemistry laboratory with risk number 150 and
respectively Molecular genetics laboratory (extraction), Sediment and benthos, Pathology, Molecular genetics
(electrophoresis), Plankton and Aquatic animal biometry laboratories were existed. After control measures, the
risk number of laboratories decreased as follows: Microbiology to 150, Pollutants to 120, Marine physical
chemistry laboratory to 80, Molecular genetics (extraction) and Sediment and Benthos Laboratories to 48,
Pathology decrease to 18, Molecular genetics (electrophoresis), Plankton and Aquatic animal biometry
laboratories decreased to 8. It is hoped that by promoting safety knowledge of laboratory staff and providing
financial can be able to reduce risk assessment number of all laboratories to very low rank. |
