Documentation

ATCC determines the biosafety level of a material based on our risk assessment as guided by the current edition of Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It is your responsibility to understand the hazards associated with the material per your organization’s policies and procedures as well as any other applicable regulations as enforced by your local or national agencies.

ATCC highly recommends that appropriate personal protective equipment is always used when handling vials. For cultures that require storage in liquid nitrogen, it is important to note that some vials may leak when submersed in liquid nitrogen and will slowly fill with liquid nitrogen. Upon thawing, the conversion of the liquid nitrogen back to its gas phase may result in the vial exploding or blowing off its cap with dangerous force creating flying debris. Unless necessary, ATCC recommends that these cultures be stored in the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen rather than submersed in liquid nitrogen.

Disclosures

ATCC is a private, nonprofit biological resource center (BRC) and research organization that holds deposits of new type strains. ATCC tests for viability and identity upon the initial deposit of type strains. For those strains with a “TSD” designation, no further testing is performed and these strains are made available on behalf of the depositor per the requirements of the International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology (IJSEM), published by the Society for General Microbiology (SGM), and the International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes (ICSP).

ATCC may fully accessions new type strains into its general culture collection. At that time, ATCC will provide an “ATCC” designation to the strain, fully characterize the strain, and provide a Certificate of Analysis with authentication data for that specific item.
