Paul remembers correctly that which of the following is not a secondary barrier employed in the laboratory?
  1. Biosafety cabinet
  2. Division of the specific areas in the laboratory
  3. Decontamination facility
  4. Autoclave machine
Explanation
Answer: A - Biosafety cabinet
All the following options are concrete examples of secondary barriers employed in clinical laboratories except for the biosafety cabinet. A lab’s secondary barrier is comprised mainly of the unique design of the facility to separate the laboratory from the common access of the public. A lab should also contain a decontamination facility such as the use of an autoclave.
