Common Challenges among laboratories. Most existing clinical laboratories are in desperate need of a variety of improvements, from updated machinery demands to increased security requirements. This publication provides a well-outlined process for the renovation of these aging, obsolete public health laboratories and helps administrators, facility managers, and laboratorians face this demanding challenge. Environmental issues, security and regulatory requirements, guidance documents, computer links, investigator needs, and fiscal obligations are addressed in a full-process, detailed format. Chapters include risk assessment, design concepts, team organization, safe maintenance of facility operation, and more. All medical laboratory workers, architects, administrators and engineers will need this reference to meet the requirements and challenges of any clinical laboratory renovation. 30 Section IV—Laboratory Biosafety Level Criteria infectious microorganisms and laboratory animals are summarized in Table 2 of this section and discussed in Section 2.
