Biological Safety Levels-BSLs are a set of biocBiological Safety Levels (BSLs) are a set of biocontainment protocols for isolating dangerous biological agents within enclosed ontainment protocols for isolating dangerous biological agents within enclosed laboratory environments. The CDC classifies them based on severity of the agents, risks to the environment and necessary containment practices.
These levels deal with agents that pose little danger to the personnel working in the lab or to the surrounding environment like non-pathogenic E. coli.

Like Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella which are moderately hazardous organisms among others are dealt with at this level.
Biotechnology and biosecurity are changing at a rapid pace due to technological developments and increased attention on global health security. The COVID-19 outbreak demonstrated the critical necessity for stringently enforced protection processes for laboratories dealing with infectious diseases.
Understanding and implementing appropriate BSL protocols is important for maintaining a safe research environment, as well as reducing risks associated with working on infectious agents. In future, continuous learning, adjusting to new technologies and safety practices will be paramount for promoting biosecurity and protecting public health.
