Development of the biological weapons programme

The biosafety outstation conducts research on the biosafety of genetically modified organisms.

In particular, section 8 of the Crimes (Biological Weapons) Act places a restriction on the development, production, stockpiling, acquisition or retention of certain biological agents and toxins and biological weapons.

It reports on activities under the Biotrade Initiative.

The biosafety unit provides institutional services related to the biosafety of genetically modified organisms and their release to the environment.

k. For other enforcement measures undertaken by China with regard to the safety and security of biological materials, see the General Biosafety Standard of the People's Republic of China for Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories.

With the current abundance of massive biological datasets, computational studies have become one of the most important means to biological discovery.

The Centre has since extended its work in this area with the establishment of a biosafety unit and a biosafety outstation.

c. For China's national legal framework and enforcement measures with regard to accounting for the storage of biological weapons and related materials, see the General Biosafety Standard for Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories.

It posits that, health is best understood in terms of a combination of biological, psychological, and social factors rather than purely in biological terms.

AFS 2000 5 regulates classification of genetically modified biological agents and provides bio safety standards for genetic engineering activities work.

Developing countries, which are often endowed with rich biodiversity, face the great challenge of combining poverty alleviation and economic growth with sustainable use and conservation of biodiversity.

The Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention, and consequently associated domestic legislation do not specify schedules' of biological agents that could constitute biological weapons.

UNIDO implements a biosafety diploma course, which is the first academically accredited biosafety course in the world.

UNIDO is also collaborating with CAB International to develop authoritative and unbiased biosafety knowledge management tools to assist in the implementation of the Convention on Biological Diversity Biosafety Clearing House Mechanism.

DNA methylation serves a wide variety of biological functions.

Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety to the Convention on Biological Diversity.

Thus, by applying the biosafety standards of developed countries it is not always possible to reach conclusions on the type of biological activities being carried out elsewhere.

The Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety, the first international legal instrument on biosafety, was adopted in January 2000 and entered into force in September 2003.

After the invasion of Kuwait by Iraq in August 1990, the biological weapons programme increased the production of bulk biological warfare agents and began to weaponize them.

The act, which will function to make it more difficult for terrorists to acquire and or use biological weapons, is framework legislation that streamlines existing laws that deal peripherally with biological weapons issues and thus provides a more complete legal basis for the regulation of dual use biological agents.

Because biological control phenomenon, you can see it in your backyard.

In contrast, organic compounds are found in biological systems.
