Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Tissue engineering is an interdisciplinary field and its experimental safety covers a wide scope along with the increase in accidents of tissue engineering laboratories, the safety management in tissue engineering laboratories in universities has become an important public health problem.
OBJECTIVE: To enhance the safety management strategies for tissue engineering laboratories in chinese universities and improve the safety management system.
METHODS: PubMed, Elseveir, WanFang and CNKI databases were retrieved for the literatures concerning 
the biosafety, safety management of hazardous chemicals, waste, medical information, instrument operation and human body mechanics in tissue engineering laboratories, and then the status of laboratory management was analyzed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The status of safety management in tissue engineering laboratories in China is analyzed based on the technique characters and regulations on safety management. Management strategies for laboratory safety have been proposed according to the differences in relevant laboratory safety management between China and the US, such as regular training on laboratory safety, improving the safety consciousness of experimental staff, constructing the strict system access to laboratory, improving safety facilities, standardizing the experimental safety manual and appointing specialized safety management committee. Comprehensive and systematical regulations on laboratory safety management will ensure the smooth running of tissue engineering laboratories in universities, thus accelerating the development of tissue engineering.
