Please note: Only biological material which can be handled under containment level 1 and 2 (see Risk Groups as defined by the European Parliament (2000) Directive 2000/54/EC on the protection of workers from risks related to exposure to biological agents at work. OJ No. L262, pp. 21-45 of 18.09.2000) can be sent to or dispatched from the DSMZ. Highly pathogenic microorganisms of Risk Group 3 and 4 are not handled by the DSMZ.
