In broad terms biosafety refers to the potential risks associated with advances in biotechnology in particular risks associated with Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO) also known as Live Modified Organisms (LMO). With regard to GMOs the potential benefits and risks to consumers of GM products are also given consideration. In addition guidelines and regulations for the safe release of GMOs, agricultural development using genetically modified crops, research and development in genetic modification, GM products in healthcare, impacts on GM crops on biodiversity & climate change and the importance in genetic modification in sustainable development in Sri Lanka are given importance in the booklet. Furthermore biosafety in laboratories, safe use & handling of microorganisms and containment of hazardous materials were also given consideration in knowledge dissimilated in the booklet. | |
