National Biosafety Laboratory (NBL)

A National Biosafety Laboratory (NBL) is a specialized facility designed to safely handle, study, and diagnose dangerous biological agents, such as viruses and bacteria that can cause serious diseases. It follows strict safety protocols to protect laboratory workers, the public, and the environment from accidental exposure or release of harmful pathogens. NBLs are crucial for advanced research, disease surveillance, and developing vaccines or treatments, ensuring that sensitive biological work is conducted responsibly and securely.
